Abstract:
Gas turbines are widely used in industry for power generation and as a power source at "hard to reach" locations where other possibilities for electrical supply are insufficient. There is a strong need for greener energy, considering the effect that pollution has had on global warming, and we need to come up with ways of producing cleaner electricity. A way to achieve this is by increasing the combustion temperature in gas turbines. This increases the demand on the high temperature performance of the materials used e.g. superalloys in the turbine. These high combustion temperatures can lead to

Abstract:
Surface thermomechanical processing was explored as a way to improve the fatigue strength of Ti-6Al-4V load bearing orthopaedic prosthesis. In this study, the surface of an implant is microknurled to provide a "textured" surface that allows for mechanical fixation by bone ingrowth. The microknurling is essentialIty an indentation technique and thus generates plastic deformation which is limited to the surface. This in turn can be used to produce localized surface recrystallization, thus permitting the modification of the surface microstructure.<br>The microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V can be control
