Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Loss of material due to corrosion, erosion, wear and oxidation is a major
problem in various industries. Recently, various surface modification methods have
been employed to improve the service life of distinct engineering parts by improving
their resistance to corrosion, wear and erosion. These methods boost thermal and
biocompatibility in addition to the mechanical and physical qualities. To offer a
thorough review of surface modification techniques, including mechanical, chemical,
and thermal procedures, this chapter has three main objectives. Overall, this chapter
provides a detailed study on working principles, merits, demerits, and applications of
various surface modification techniques.
