Subsea pipelines are laid directly on seabed with further constraining measures to stabilise it against adverse effect of axial walking, upheaval buckling and lateral buckling. Costly mitigating measures are being employed and the need for further investigation to explore more option [...]Abstract
The main objective of the present work was to determine the influence of laser beam processing (LBP) on microstructure, microhardness, surface geometric structure, adhesion tests and tribological properties of coatings deposited on C45 carbon steel by the electro-spark deposition [...]
