.... The manufacturing chain for the flanged rings is generally forging, softening, shot blasting, soft turning, selective induction surface hardening, raceway finishing and flange drilling and taping. The flange structural core strength properties are therefore a function of the steel's metallurgical quality, forging...

... alloy have been evaluated with an objective of using this surface hardening treatment for orthopaedic implants. The properties evaluated were hardness, tensile strength, fatigue strength, wear, surface wettability and corrosion resistance of the alloy. The results of this investigation indicated...

... of the single pulse threshold. The charge quantity was very noisy and apparently uncorrelated with fluence. Surface hardening was observed for the ThF 4 film and it did not emit until damage was initiated. charge emission photoconductivity diamond turned copper silicon thorium fluoride tantalum...

... This paper represents the first part of a systematic investigation of factors affecting the fatigue resistance of surface-hardened steel components. The adopted approach is to view a surface-hardened member as a composite material consisting of a high strength, low ductility case and a lower...

... provide the optimum pretreatment for bonding solid lubricants to titanium. Surface hardening processes such as nitriding and oxidizing produce wear resistant surfaces which may be lubricated by standard liquid lubricants, even at high loads. Platings of chromium or nickel on titanium are promising from...
