Laser foil printing and surface polishing processes
… of foil, laser cutting of foil, and laser polishing processes. The fabricated free-form parts were demonstrated and own better mechanical properties (micro hardness and tensile strength) than the raw material, because of the rapid-cooling process of laser welding. The full and strong bond …

Parametric Modeling, Analysis, Classification, and Optimization of the Laser Polishing Process with Respect to the Working Distance
Laser polishing (LP) is a finishing technique used to enhance the quality of the workpiece surface. LP relies on laser radiation to melt a thin superficial layer of material in order to either smoothen the surface or generate structures on it. The process of surface smoothening is achieved via …

Nanopore/Nanotube Pattern Formation through Focused Ion Beam Guided Anodization
… beam guided anodic titania nanotubes begins with surface polishing. The influence of four polishing conditions, as-received, chemically polished, mechanically polished, and electropolished samples, are investigated. A polished smooth sample provides a desired surface for focused ion beam guided …

Dynamic response of glass under low-velocity impact and high strain-rate compression loading
… glass specimens with three different polished surfaces were tested to study the effects of surface polishing on their dynamic compression behavior. A marked improvement has been observed in specimens with less surface flaws. A high-speed camera was also utilized (at 500,000 fps) to study the …

Optomechanical Design of a Space Telescope Primary Mirror
… in AIT environment and pressure loads during surface polishing. In addition to this, mass is also an important criterion. Telescope mass is also derived from the mass of the primary mirror. So, a lightweight primary mirror with sufficient stiffness to avoid distortion due to gravity and …

Generation and Characterization of Energetic Neutral Beams for Surface Modification
… were extracted and neutralized via surface or gas phase charge-exchange. The neutral beam etching of polymers with a reactive mixture of O<sub>2</sub>/SF<sub>6</sub> produced initial etch rates of up to 30 nm min<sup>-1</sup> in a single extractor arrangement and up to 14 nm …
