In this paper, a thorough review has been presented on the latest research work carried out for the enhancement of machining performance of one of the most commonly used superalloys that is, Inconel 718. The thermal energy has been frequently utilized for improving machinability characteristics of Inconel 718. The review of available literature indicates that plasma, laser, and electric dischar...

Because of the large volume of Inconel 718 used by the aerospace and power generation industries and the high percentage of metal removed to machine complex component geometries; understanding and improving the machining characteristics of Inconel 718 would result in substantial cost savings. While progress has been made in developing improved tool materials and machining processes, a detailed ...

In this paper, our purpose is to calculate photon-matter interaction parameters of Ni-based alloys, Inconel-617 and Incoloy-800HT, which are the main candidates for high-temperature applications such as spacecraft, gas turbines, nuclear reactors rocket motors. The radiation attenuation buildup factors were obtained in a wide energy range by using Phy-X/PSD EpiXS softwares determine protection c...
