What can micromechanics tell us about the surface integrity of shot-peened materials? (2023)
Journal Article
Robles-Linares, J. A., Luna, G. G., la Monaca, A., Liao, Z., & Hardy, M. C. (2023). What can micromechanics tell us about the surface integrity of shot-peened materials?. CIRP Annals - Manufacturing Technology, 72(1), 497-500. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cirp.2023.04.003

Standard techniques for assessing shot peening include XRD and EBSD for measuring residual stresses and severe deformation beneath the surface; however, these techniques do not consider the localised micromechanical behaviour. Here, single-grain micr... Read More about What can micromechanics tell us about the surface integrity of shot-peened materials?.

Towards the understanding the effect of surface integrity on the fatigue performance of silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites (2021)
Journal Article
Han, X., Liao, Z., Luna, G. G., Li, H. N., & Axinte, D. (2022). Towards the understanding the effect of surface integrity on the fatigue performance of silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites. Journal of Manufacturing Processes, 73, 518-530. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmapro.2021.11.029

The fatigue performance of metal matrix composites (MMCs) is highly related to their surface integrity due to the intensive tool-particle interactions and metallographic alterations of matrix, especially under extreme cutting parameters, which could...

Influence of surface integrity induced by multiple machining processes upon the fatigue performance of a nickel based superalloy (2021)
Journal Article
Liao, Z., Xu, D., Luna, G. G., Axinte, D., Augustinavicius, G., Sarasua, J. A., & Wretland, A. (2021). Influence of surface integrity induced by multiple machining processes upon the fatigue performance of a nickel based superalloy. Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 298, Article 117313. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmatprotec.2021.117313

Machining operations are of key importance to the fatigue performance of nickel based superalloys due to the high thermal/mechanical loadings yielded on the machined workpiece which can significantly alter the surface integrity of the components. The... Read More about Influence of surface integrity induced by multiple machining processes upon the fatigue performance of a nickel based superalloy.
