Surface and subsurface characteristics of structural components for use in production equipment and machines, depending on the functions and their usage in service, can be the critical aspect from the service life viewpoint. Generated surface and subsurface characteristics of manufactured components affect functional performance with progressively deteriorating wear, corrosion and fatigue resistance, and consequently determine the effective life of components of such machines and equipment in various industries including aerospace, automotive and power industries. Developing advanced processing methods and predictive models to control surface integrity characteristics of components for achieving improved product life and performance has been an area of significance in advanced manufacturing.
