✦ Synopsis

Various surface engineering techniques are used to modify the surface layer of the Ti alloys to improve their tribological properties. The life of the coating can be increased by introducing intermediate hardened surface layer reducing plastic deformation of substrate material. In this paper, the tensile behaviour of Ti alloy with hard elastic coating was investigated to enable tailoring the resistance to plastic deformation and increase load bearing capacity and fatigue resistance.
