Single asperity nanoscratch behaviour of HIPed and cast Stellite 6 alloys. (2014)
Journal Article
AHMED, R., ASHRAF, A., ELAMEEN, M., FAISAL, N.H., EL-SHERIK, A.M., ELAKWAH, Y.O. and GOOSEN, M.F.A. 2014. Single asperity nanoscratch behaviour of HIPed and cast Stellite 6 alloys. Wear [online], 312(1-2), pages 70-82. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wear.2014.02.006

The aim of this study was to investigate the nanoscale sliding wear behaviour of re-HIPed (Hot Isostatically Pressed) and cast cobalt-based Stellite 6 alloys. A nanoindentation system equipped with a wear testing module was used to simulate single as... Read More about Single asperity nanoscratch behaviour of HIPed and cast Stellite 6 alloys..

Influence of test methodology and probe geometry on nanoscale fatigue failure of diamond-like carbon film. (2014)
Journal Article
FAISAL, N.H., AHMED, R., GOEL, S. and FU, Y.Q. 2014. Influence of test methodology and probe geometry on nanoscale fatigue failure of diamond-like carbon film. Surface and coatings technology [online], 242, pages 42-53. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2014.01.015

The aim of this paper is to investigate the mechanism of nanoscale fatigue using nano-impact and multiple-loading cycle nanoindentation tests, and compare it to previously reported findings of nanoscale fatigue using integrated stiffness and depth se...

Atomistic investigation on the structure-property relationship during thermal spray nanoparticle impact. (2013)
Journal Article
GOEL, S., FAISAL, N.H., RATIA, V., AGRAWAL, A. and STUKOWSKI, A. 2014. Atomistic investigation on the structure-property relationship during thermal spray nanoparticle impact. Computational materials science [online], 84, pages 163-174. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.commatsci.2013.12.011

During thermal spraying, hot particles impact on a colder substrate. This interaction of crystalline copper nanoparticles and copper substrate is modeled, using MD simulation. The quantitative results of the impacts at different velocities and temper...

Nano-impact (fatigue) characterization of as-deposited amorphous nitinol thin film. (2012)
Journal Article
FAISAL, N.H., AHMED, R. and FU, R. 2012. Nano-impact (fatigue) characterization of as-deposited amorphous nitinol thin film. Coatings [online], 2(3), pages 195-209. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/coatings2030195

This paper presents nano-impact (low cycle fatigue) behavior of as-deposited amorphous nitinol (TiNi) thin film deposited on Si wafer. The nitinol film was 3.5 µm thick and was deposited by the sputtering process. Nano-impact tests were conducted to...
