Optimization of Operating Parameters for Autogenous Welding of AISI 316L Stainless Steel and Steel Using Pulsed Nd: YAG Laser

An attempt made to optimize the operating parameters involved in an autogenous pulsed Nd: YAG laser welding process of similar and dissimilar combinations of butt joint of 2 mm thick 316 L stainless steel and mild steel. Influence of prominent laser welding parameters such as average peak power, defocus position, spot position, and shielding gas were investigated for welded joints considered. T...

Process Mapping of Laser Glazing Aisi 316l Stainless Steel for Biomedical Implants

Nanosecond Laser Surface Patterning of Bio Grade 316L Stainless Steel for Controlling its Wettability Characteristics

In this work, potential of the nanosecond laser processing technique on manipulating the surface wettability of 316L bio grade stainless steel is investigated. Results show that the steel wettability toward water, improves significantly after the laser treatment. Different analyses are assessed in correlation with wettability using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Scanning Tunneling Microsco...

Formation of Surface Nano/Ultrafine Structure using Deep Rolling Process on the AISI 316L Stainless Steel

Austenitic stainless steels (ASSs) have an excellent corrosion resistance but relatively-low hardness and yield strength [1,2], leading to limited usage in applications that high values of hardness and wear resistance is necessary for material surface. Therefore, surface properties such as hardness must be improved using appropriate techniques. Mechanical surface treatments such as ultrasonic s...
