Nanosecond pulsed laser micromachining for experimental fatigue life study of Ti–3Al–2.5V tubes

“…For in-service titanium tube, defects such as gouges, scratches, fretting, dents, and pits might develop on the external surface, which can reduce the total life cycles for operation [1]. Assessment of residual life of the tube with defects is therefore imperative to avoid hydraulic leak failure within required service hours.…”
