Sentence examples for increasing surface hardness from inspiring English sources

The fatigue limit of 0.1% carbon steel increased with increasing surface hardness and surface compressive residual stress imposed by prestrain.

Due to the increase in bond density, this results in increasing surface hardness of the nitrated region, but also in a significantly reduced corrosion rate for treatment in alkaline solutions.

In addition to the highly refined microstructure, the transformation under strain to martensite (TRIP effect), contributes to the plasticity of the nano-scaled steels, increasing surface hardness during testing, thus reducing the wear rate.

The laser quenching can increase surface hardness and improve wear-resistance of wheel/rail materials.

This is partially because of significantly increased surface hardness and thus an enhanced mechanical support for the surface oxide film.

The results show that Z-P-Ti is load-bearable with an increased surface hardness and roughness.

This may be due to formation of calcium carbonate, which also increases surface hardness of the concrete, similar to carbonation effects.

TEOS retentions between 4.9% and 5.9% were obtained, which increased surface hardness, compressive strength and flexural strength compared to non-treated specimens.

The laser treatment also increased surface hardness two times and reduced the wear rate considerably due to grain refinement and solid solution strengthening.

Due to increased surface hardness (H) and elastic modulus (Er) as well as reduced Er / H ratio, the surface treatment has improved the scratch resistance and micro-abrasive wear resistance of the titanium aluminide.

The results show that the addition of titanium produced a significant change in the microstructure of the overlays, increased surface hardness and enhanced wear resistance compared to overlays produced without titanium.
