Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of chemistry modification for laser textured metal alloys to achieve extreme surface wetting behaviors
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a systematic understanding of the interdependence of surface chemistry modification and physical surface structures formed during the laser-based surface engineering methods, and highlight the most fruitful approaches and underlying mechanisms to achieve a fitting combination of surface structures and surface chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
An efficient coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian finite element model for friction stir processing
TL;DR: In this paper, a computation-efficient process model is developed using ABAQUS/Explicit based on coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) formulation to simulate FSP of aluminum alloy 5083.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulating microstructure evolution of battery tabs during ultrasonic welding
TL;DR: In this article, a metallo-thermo-mechanically coupled model was developed to model the temperature-dependent mechanical deformation and microstructural evolution during the ultrasonic spot welding process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of Chemical Surface Treatment for Laser-Textured Metal Alloys to Achieve Extreme Wetting Behavior.
TL;DR: This work introduces a systematic design approach to modify the surface chemistry of laser textured metal alloys to achieve various extreme wettabilities, including superhydrophobicity/superoleophobicity, superHydrophilicity/ superoleophilicity, and co-existence of superoleophobicicity and superhydphilicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanostructuring of laser textured surface to achieve superhydrophobicity on engineering metal surface
TL;DR: In this paper, a nanosecond laser-based high-throughput surface nanostructuring process was used to create micro-and nano-scale surface features on the metal surface.
