..., in order to create active groups that can chemically react with the epoxy resin, under heat and pressure. By this way, better adhesion as mechanical interlocking between the resin and the reinforcement can be achieved. Findings The surface treatment was examined qualitatively by means of infrared...

.... Lasers Peening Residual stress Automation Overlay Surface treatment Laser peening is a surface enhancement process that generates high magnitude and deep compressive residual stresses in metal parts using high‐intensity laser pulses (Clauer and Lahrman, 2000 ; Clauer and Koucky, 1991...

... Aluminium alloys Powder Aircraft components Certification Alloys Surface treatment Components in commercial or military aircraft, which are sometimes operated beyond their original design life, encounter many age‐related problems during service, such as fatigue, corrosion and wear. To ensure...

...Lothar Wagner; Mansour Mhaede; Manfred Wollmann; Igor Altenberger; Yuji Sano Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of mechanical surface treatments on the surface layer properties and the fatigue performance of the aircraft alloys Al 7075‐T73 and Ti‐6Al‐4V Design...
