Engineering bi-directional microstructural heterogeneity through mechanical surface treatment

Can mechanical surface treatments be used to positionally engineer microstructures? In our latest publication, we explored how selective ultrasonic shot peening (USP) can be used to create bi-directional microstructural heterogeneity in thin 316L stainless…
