Fault detection method for transmission line components based on lightweight GMPPD-YOLO

Abstract This paper designs a lightweight high-precision transmission line component detection model, named grouped dense, monotonic self-regularized, and partial faster convolution, pruning, and distillation optimized—you only look once (GMPPD-YOLO), in transmission line inspection. It addresses the issue of low detection accuracy of target detection algorithms due to the complex background, large differences in target shape, location, texture, etc, as well as diversified and smaller defects in insulator and vibration hammer images taken by unmanned aerial vehicles from multiple angles. To enhance the model’s feature extraction capabilities in complex backgrounds and across different scales, the grouped dense C3 dense feature extraction module was designed, enabling the model to more effectively handle diverse defect forms. Simultaneously, the monotonic self-regularized pyramid pooling–fast (MSPPF) module is proposed to enhance the model’s capability to process multi-scale information. Additionally, the partial-faster C3 feature awareness module is designed to improve feature fusion performance, enhancing the model’s ability to perceive features at different scales. Finally, channel pruning was used to reduce redundant parameters, and knowledge distillation was employed to compensate for the accuracy loss caused by pruning. This approach further compressed the model size while ensuring its detection performance. The experimental results demonstrate that compared to the original YOLOv5s algorithm, the proposed GMPPD-YOLO algorithm achieves a reduction in parameters by 68.4%, a decrease in Giga floating-point operations per second by 58.2%, and a reduction in the model size by 66.4%, while achieving an increase in precision by 1%, mAP50 by 1.1%, and mAP95 by 0.4%. This confirms the significant potential of the GMPPD-YOLO algorithm for deployment in real-time drone-based power transmission line inspections.

Optimization of friction stir processing parameters to improve mechanical properties and microstructure of Al5083 aluminum alloy reinforced with AlCoCrFeNiSi high-entropy alloy

Abstract This study explores integrating AlCoCrFeNiSi high-entropy alloy (HEA) particles into the Al5083 aluminum alloy matrix via Friction Stir Processing (FSP) to enhance mechanical characteristics. Microstructural analysis reveals a homogeneous distribution and size reduction of HEA particles, contributing to improved structural strength. X-ray diffraction (XRD) examination confirms the formation of solid solution phases in the HEA particles, validating their role in enhancing material properties. Through the utilization of Design of Experiments (DOE) and Response Surface Methodology (RSM), FSP parameters are systematically optimized, enabling precise predictions of mechanical behavior. Multi-response optimization identifies the optimal combination of FSP parameters, resulting in significant enhancements in Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) and Hardness, reaching 314 MPa, 42% elongation, and 75 HV, respectively. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis of tensile test specimens elucidates the impact of varied FSP parameters on microstructural features, emphasizing the importance of optimal mixing for improving interfacial bonding and mechanical properties. This study underscores the effectiveness of integrating HEA particles and optimizing FSP parameters to elevate the mechanical properties of Al5083 aluminum alloy, paving the way for tailored composite materials with enhanced performance for specific applications.

Particle shape descriptors as a tool for classification of grain breakage

This study explores particle breakage of a calcareous sand, utilizing Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) and Direct Shear Tests at varying normal stress levels to analyze the sand crushing mechanism. Tests were arrested at four phase transition points encountered during shear. Particle breakage was traced along a proposed scale based on the literature. Distinct behaviors in shape descriptors for particles of different diameters were observed under changing stress conditions. Agglomerated particle-level behavior indicates that applied stress levels lead to different soil responses; at low stress, grains roll or slide, while at high stresses, grain movement is restricted. Particle breakage was evident even at minimal stress, with increasing grain size reduction as shear strain and stress levels heightened. The study introduces a Loading Intensity (LI) parameter, amalgamating the effects of force chains and loading duration to model grain crushing. Relationships between the Shape-Angularity Group Indicator (SAGI), convexity (Cx), and sphericity (S) were also established, enabling calculation of these descriptors, after any loading intensity is applied, based on initial values. Finally, a methodology for forecasting changes in S and Cx, under any given LI for materials with a known SAGI is presented.

Synthetic Strategies for Vitamin-loaded Carbon Dots and their Detection using Biosensors: A Review

Abstract: Carbon dots belong to the class of nanomaterials invented accidentally and are attracting a lot of attention these days. Carbon dots are non-toxic, photostable, and easy-to-synthesize nano formulations having good water-soluble properties when treated chemically by manipulating surface active groups, followed by the addition of solubilizing agents and size reduction. These are widely used in bioimaging, electrochemical sensing, targeted drug delivery, and other biomedical activities. In recent years, significant attempts have been emphasized by analysts to the detection of vitamins embedded carbon dots using biosensors. The biosensing of vitamins has become easy due to the luminescence property of carbon dots, which makes them easy to detect. Therefore, in this review, we have reported synthetic strategies and recent biosensorbased detection techniques used in the analysis of vitamin-loaded carbon dots. Even from the carbon dot’s analytical perspective, there is still a lot of research needed in the area of biosensing, bioimaging, and healthcare applications. Unique features, along with the controllable synthesis methods, will lead to a bright future in the detection and characterization of drugs using carbon dots.

Ultrastable fluorinated copolypeptide nanodroplets of loaded mixed liquids with low vaporization threshold

The expansion of ultrasound molecular imaging applications warrants a reduction in ultrasound contrast agent size and significant advancement in the in vivo stability of shell-stabilized bubbles. The shift from first to second-generation ultrasound contrast agents was marked by an improvement in stability as air was replaced by hydrophobic gases like perfluoropropane and sulfur hexafluoride. Further enhancements may be facilitated by focusing on strategies to retain the encapsulated gas within the ultrasound contrast agent shell despite extreme mechanical deformations. In this study, we developed a novel ultrasound contrast agent with a unique shell structure and a specially-formulated, low-boiling fluorinated liquid interior, resulting in superior stability during repeated and prolonged ultrasound-induced oscillations. Our ultra-stable nanodroplets can withstand sustained in vitro ultrasound exposure with minimal signal attenuation and can induce significant signal enhancement and delay in signal attenuation in the kidney, liver, and tumor tissues during in vivo experiments. Furthermore, encapsulating photosensitizers within these nanodroplets and leveraging photothermal effects could further augment the ultrasound imaging signal and verify its efficacy in tumor therapy. The creation of highly stable nanodroplets opens immense potential to augment the role of ultrasound in molecular imaging, therapy, and drug delivery.

Parameters estimation of complex solar photovoltaic models using bi-parameter coordinated updating L-SHADE with parameter decomposition method

Accurate estimation of unknown parameters of complex photovoltaic models is crucial to whether photovoltaic generators can efficiently convert energy. When a photovoltaic model has multiple diode branches, its complexity increases geometrically. To address the problems of high complexity and difficulty in estimation, this paper proposes an effective improved algorithm based on success-history adaptation differential evolution with linear population size reduction (L-SHADE)—Bi-parameter coordinated updating L-SHADE with parameter decomposition method (CSpL-SHADED). First in CSpL-SHADED, dynamic crossover rate ranking technology is developed to bridge the relationship between individuals and crossover rates, thereby improving effective mutation capabilities. In addition, a dynamic sub-population mechanism is also proposed to divide the entire population into multiple sub-populations so that they are evenly distributed in the search space, so the search ability of individuals in local areas is improved. Secondly, the unknown parameters of solar photovoltaic models of different complexity are effectively decomposed into linear and nonlinear parameters by the decomposition method. The nonlinear parameters are accurately estimated by CSpL-SHADED, and the linear parameters are calculated based on the constructed matrix equation. Through experiments on four solar photovoltaic models of different complexity, CSpL-SHADED showed strong competitiveness to varying degrees compared to the comparative algorithms.

Investigate the effect of co-doping on the grain size and diffuse phase transition of barium titanate ceramics

An investigation examined the impact of co-doping BaTiO3 ceramics with La3+ and Nd3+ on their microstructural, dielectric, and phase transition properties. The synthesis of BaTiO3 with co-doping of La3+ and Nd3+, using the general formula Ba1-x(La1/3, Nd1/3)xTiO3 (BLNdTx) with varying concentrations of x (0%, 2%, 4%, and 8%), is achieved by the solid-state reaction technique. A temperature-dependent dielectric permittivity investigation was conducted at four distinct frequencies (1 kHz, 10 kHz, 100 kHz, 500 kHz, and 1 MHz) within the 30–200 °C temperature range. The findings indicate that the samples show a diffuse phase transition and a noticeable divergence from the typical Curie-Weiss equation. The diffuseness parameters γ for phase transition rose from 1.15 to 1.75 as x grew from 0 to 8%, respectively. The concurrent impact of surface phenomena, mechanical stress phenomena, and the external effect of grain boundaries might explain the substantial size reduction. An in-depth understanding of the grain size effect and its underlying mechanism would be advantageous for advancing and practically using BaTiO3-based ceramics and other ferroelectrics.

Liver cancer in ovo models for preclinical testing.

Immunotherapies have significantly improved the prognosis of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), although more than 70% of patients still do not respond to this first-line treatment. Many new combination strategies are currently being explored, which drastically increases the need for preclinical models that would allow large-scale testing of new immunotherapies and their combinations. We developed several in ovo (in the egg) human liver cancer models, based on human tumor xenografts of different liver cancer cell lines on the chicken embryo's chorioallantoic membrane. We characterized the angiogenesis, as well as the collagen accumulation and tumor immune microenvironment, and tested atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1) plus bevacizumab (anti-VEGF) treatment. Our results show the involvement of chicken immune cells in tumor growth, reproducing a classical non-inflamed "cold" as well as inflamed "hot" tumor status, depending on the in ovo liver cancer model. The treatment by atezolizumab and bevacizumab was highly efficient in the "hot" tumor model PLC/PRF/5 in ovo with the reduction of tumor size by 76% (p ≤ .0001) compared with the control, whereas the efficacy was limited in the "cold" Hep3B in ovo tumor. The contribution of the anti-PD-L1 blockade to the anti-tumoral effect in the PLC/PRF/5 in ovo model was demonstrated by the efficacy of atezolizumab monotherapy (p = .0080, compared with the control). To conclude, our study provides a detailed characterization and rational arguments that could help to partially replace conventional laboratory animals with a more ethical model, suited to the current needs of preclinical research of new immunotherapies for liver cancer.

Nanocrystal formulations of mebendazole employing Quality by Design and molecular level insights by atomistic simulations.

Objective The present study investigates the production of mebendazole nanocrystal formulations by wet media milling. Significance Nanocrystal formulations are expected to enhance the dissolution properties of mebendazole, which possesses poor solubility, highly dependent on crystal polymorphism. Methods A Box-Behnken design was employed to study the effects of formulation and process variables on the nanocrystal size and ζ-potential. The optimal nanosuspensions were solidified by spay-drying and freeze-drying with and without mannitol, and the effects of the drying method on the reconstitution of the nanosuspension was studied. Additionally, their physicochemical properties were determined, while the mechanism of fracture and stabilizer adsorption were investigated by atomistic simulations. Results Poloxamer 407 is the most suitable stabilizer, while the bead size, milling speed, and stabilizer content significantly affect the diameter. The ζ-potential is affected by the stabilizer concentration depending on bead size. Energy-vector diagrams revealed a slip plane in the lattice of form C, while molecular dynamics simulations revealed strong interactions between stabilizer and crystal surface. Both drying processes induce polymorphic transformation to form A, which, however, can be partially prevented by the addition of mannitol in freeze-drying, at the expense of suspension redispersibility. The spray-dried nanosuspensions exhibited substantially enhanced dissolution profile compared to neat mebendazole, probably due to reduction of particle size, despite transformation to the unfavorable form A. Conclusions Nanocrystal formulations exhibited significant dissolution enhancement, while experimental design and atomistic simulations provided useful insights into the mechanism of their formation and stability.

Theoretical simulation study of laser-induced plasma bombardment on bacteria

With the rapid advancement of laser decontamination technology and growing awareness of microbial hazards, it becomes crucial to employ theoretical model to simulate and evaluate decontamination processes by laser-induced plasma. This study employs a two-dimensional axisymmetric fluid dynamics model to simulate the power density of plasma bombardment on bacteria and access its decontamination effects. The model considers the transport processes of vapor plasma and background gas molecules. Based on the destructive impact of high-speed moving particles in the plasma on bacteria, we investigate the bombardment power density under various conditions, including different laser spot sizes, wavelengths, plate’s tilt angles, and plate-target spacing. The results reveal that the bombardment power density increases with a decrease in laser spot size and wavelength. For instance, when the plate is parallel to the target surface with a 1 mm spacing, the bombardment power density triples as the laser spot size decreases from 0.8 mm to 0.5 mm and quadruples as the wavelength decreases from 1064 nm to 266 nm. Notably, when the plate is parallel to the target with a relatively close spacing of 0.5 mm, the bombardment power density at 0° inclination increases sevenfold compared to 45°. This simulation study is essential for optimizing optical parameters and designing component layouts in decontamination devices using laser-induced plasma. The reduction of laser spot size, wavelength, plate-target spacing and aligning the plate parallel to the target, collectively contribute to achieving precise and effective decontamination.

Effect of crystallite size reduction and widening of optical phonon vibration due to AC variation on ZnO/Mg composites in implementation of methylene blue degradation.

The fashion industry's reliance on dyes contributes significantly to environmental pollution, which disturbs the ecological balance. To address this issue, we used ZnO/Mg combined with activated carbon (AC) at various concentrations (0.1g, 0.5g, and 1g), which were synthesized via sol-gel and mechanical alloying processes. The analysis of X-ray diffraction shows reduced crystallite size, with d-spacing change ( d ) for ZnO/Mg/AC (0.5g) and ( d ) for ZnO/Mg/AC (1g), respectively. The results of the IR spectrum indicated the main vibrations is MgO and Zn-O bonds at wave numbers 673cm-1 and 467cm-1. It was found that ZnO/Mg/AC (1g) shows high degradation performance : 86.15% as a consequence of reduced crystallite size: 22.67nm, decreased skin depth: 0.002cm, widening of optical phonon vibration ( ): 252cm-1 and increased : 4.6eV as a function AC variation. Moreover, the finding of high photocatalytic performance 80% for 0.25mLMB dissolved in 250mL distilled water is obtained from all composites. Based on these results, ZnO/Mg/AC shows potential as a photocatalyst to solve the MB waste problem.

Enhanced multiferroic properties of Co-doped BiFeO3 nanoparticles via structural changes

The present study demonstrates a rhombohedral-to-orthorhombic phase transition of BiFe1-XCoXO3 (BFCXO, x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.05) nanoparticles induced by Co ion doping. With increasing concentration of Co dopant, XRD, Raman and IR patterns exhibit lattice shrinkage and increased lattice strain; SEM and TEM images reveal a corresponding reduction in grain size; XPS spectra indicate that the Fe2+ ions are readily oxidized by Co3+ to Fe3+ ions because to the greater oxidation–reduction potential of Fe3+/Fe2+ (1.3 eV) than that of Co3+/Co2+ (0.55 eV). Effective regulation of crystal structure and microstructure significantly alters the multiferroic properties of BFCXO samples. The Co-doped samples gradually transition from antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism. Among them, BFC0.03O reaches its maximum values at Ms ~ 0.956 emu/g for magnetization saturation and Mr ~ 0.054 emu/g for remanent magnetization. Meanwhile, BFC0.03O exhibits better ferroelectric properties compared to its pure counterpart. This study presents an effective approach for controlling the structure and characteristics of BFO-based nanomaterials for multifunctional device applications.

Differential allelopathic effects of mangrove plants Kandelia obovata and Aegiceras corniculatum on harmful algal species: Potential applications in algal bloom control

This study examined effects of mangrove plants Kandelia obovata and Aegiceras corniculatum on harmful algal species. While A. corniculatum leaf extract had no inhibitory effect, K. obovata leaf extract significantly inhibited the growth of two harmful algal species Alexandrium tamarense and Karenia mikimotoi. The inhibitory effect was concentration-dependent, with over 90 % inhibition at the highest concentration. Morphological changes and cell size reduction were observed in both microalgae. Excessive production of reactive oxygen species and damage to algal photosynthetic system were found. The allelopathic effect of K. obovata on K. mikimotoi with low-concentration repeated exposure was more effective than high-concentration single exposure. The EC50 of K. obovata (0.33 g L−1) was lower than reported values on other coastal plants. Higher inhibitory effects of K. obovata were found on naked algal species than the armoured ones. These findings suggest potential applications of K. obovata leaf extract in controlling harmful algal blooms.

Residual stress and crystallite size analysis of SMAT on AA7075-T6

The study examines how SMAT influences the microstructure, dislocation density, and residual stress of AA7075-T6 alloy. SMAT involves the repeated impact of shots on a material surface within a vibration chamber, inducing severe plastic deformation and grain refinement. The study explores the interplay between vibration-induced shot effects and their impact on surface properties, emphasizing the importance of optimizing process parameters for improved material performance. Experimental analyses, including surface and subsurface microstructure examinations, X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization, and residual stress evaluations, are conducted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of SMAT. Results indicate that SMAT leads to significant plastic deformation, grain size reduction, increased dislocation density, and microstrain. The treatment produces a nanocrystallite layer, enhancing material properties. Residual stress measurements reveal a surface stress of −245 MPa, increasing to −360 MPa at 50 µm depth. The proposed multiple impact model accurately predicts deformation behavior, highlighting the deep pit regions formed during SMAT. This comprehensive investigation provides insights into the dynamic nature of SMAT and its potential for enhancing material properties. By integrating experimental findings with numerical modeling approaches, the study advances our understanding of SMAT-induced plastic deformation mechanisms and residual stress profiles.

Conjoint influence of equal channel angular pressing and annealing on microstructure and mechanical properties of aluminum alloy 7075

AbstractThe effect of equal channel angular pressing combined with inter‐pass and post‐process annealing on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Al‐7075 alloy has been studied. The samples underwent successful equal channel angular pressing for three passes using the Bc route. The most significant changes in mechanical properties were observed after the first pass. Despite an 88 % reduction in grain size, the hardness of the alloy increased by 45 % and the fracture toughness decreased by 75 %. Post‐process annealing was found to be an effective method for enhancing the alloy‘s toughness. Annealing the one‐pass sample at 310 °C resulted in a 33 % increase in fracture toughness; from 15.8 J to 21.02 J. Inter‐pass annealing had a lesser impact on improving fracture toughness compared to post‐process annealing. It can be concluded that a balanced combination of strength and toughness can be achieved by utilizing a combination of equal channel angular pressing and inter‐pass or post‐process annealing. Examination of the fracture surfaces of the samples revealed intragranular fractures, with the annealed samples exhibiting higher energy absorption during impact and better toughness compared to the non‐annealed sample.

Revealing cis- and trans-regulatory elements underlying nuclear distribution and function of the Arabidopsis histone H2B.8 variant.

The H2B.8 variant has been diverged from other variants by its extended N-terminal region that possesses a conserved domain. We generated transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing H2B.9 (class I), H2B.5 (class II) and H2B.8 (class III) fused to GFP under the 35S promoter and studied their nuclear distribution and function. H2B.8-GFP showed peculiar nuclear localization at chromocenters in all cell types examined, while H2B.5-GFP and H2B.9-GFP displayed various patterns often dependent on cell types. H2B variants faithfully assembled onto nucleosomes showing no effect on nuclear organization; H2B.8-GFP appeared as three distinct isoforms in which one isoform appeared to be SUMOylated. Interestingly, transient expression in protoplasts revealed H2B.8 nuclear localization distinct from transgenic plants as it was restricted to the nuclear periphery generating a distinctive ring-like appearance accompanied by nuclear size reduction. This unique appearance was abolished by deletion of the N-terminal conserved domain or when H2B.8-GFP is transiently expressed in ddm1 protoplasts. GFP-TRAP-coupled proteome analysis uncovered H2B.8-partner proteins including H2A.W.12, which characterizes heterochromatin. Thus, our data highlight H2B.8 as a unique variant evolved in angiosperms to control chromatin compaction/aggregation and uncover cis- and trans-regulatory elements underlying its nuclear distribution and function.

Demonstration of Group-Level and Individual-Level Efficacy Using Time-to-Event Designs for Clinical Trials of Antiseizure Medications.

Participants with treatment-resistant epilepsy who are randomized to add-on placebo and remain in a trial for the typical 3 to 5-month maintenance period may be at increased risk of adverse outcomes. A novel trial design has been suggested, time to prerandomization monthly seizure count (T-PSC), which would limit participants' time on ineffective therapy. We reanalyzed 11 completed trials to determine whether the primary efficacy conclusions at T-PSC matched each of the original, longer trials. A total of 11 double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of levetiracetam, brivaracetam, lacosamide, topiramate, and lamotrigine for either focal-onset or generalized-onset epilepsy were selected. We evaluated the group-level and individual-level efficacy of treatments including the median percent reduction (MPR) in seizure frequency and 50% responder rate (50RR) at T-PSC, time to second seizure, and time to first seizure compared with the full-length trial. The primary efficacy conclusions of 10 of the 11 trials would have been the same with a T-PSC design compared with the traditional design (the exception of lamotrigine had a very high initial placebo response). As a proportion of the full-length effect size, 90% of the MPR and 85% of the 50RR were seen at T-PSC (95% CI 73%-113% and 65%-110%, respectively). Using the T-PSC design, the time on blinded treatment was at least 312 participant-years shorter (40% of total duration) and 142,000 seizures occurred during this time (60% of total seizures). By contrast, the time to first or second seizure designs reproduced group-level effect size, but the primary efficacy conclusions of each trial and individual-level efficacy correspondence were fair to poor. These results support the use of this trial design for new epilepsy medication trials because this reanalysis of 11 randomized controlled trials demonstrated that observation until T-PSC was sufficient to demonstrate efficacy while potentially improving participant safety by reducing the time of exposure to placebo and inadequate treatment. Despite analysis of 11 trials including 3,619 participants, we did not observe a significant reduction in the group-level effect size, which is directly related to statistical power. The next step is to evaluate whether T-PSC is sufficient to evaluate safety as measured by adverse events.

Gas-solid flow behavior and heat transfer in a spiral-based reactor for calcium-based thermochemical energy storage

Calcium-based thermochemical energy storage presents a viable solution to bridge the gap between energy supply and demand during periods of off-sunlight due to its high energy density, low cost, and widespread availability. However, this technology faces a challenge in enhancing heat and mass transfer in the reactor, largely due to its low thermal conductivity. This study investigated the flow behavior and heat transfer in a spiral-based reactor, both with and without the inclusion of calcium-based particles during pneumatic conveying. The results indicate that, for flow behavior, the variation in Re number with a limited amount of particle mass in the spiral-based reactor is similar to that without particle conveying, increasing with an increase in gas velocity. However, an increased amount of particle mass can lead to clogging in the spiral-based reactor, resulting in notches in the Re number variation. Furthermore, the kinetic energy variation of calcium-based particles during pneumatic conveying follows four distinct stages: rapid growth, transient stationary, secondary growth, and secondary stationary, which increases with an increase in particle mass and gas velocity. For heat transfer, the temperature remains constant in the spiral-based reactor without particle conveying. However, the variation in gas temperature is opposite to that of particle temperature due to heat transfer between them in the spiral-based reactor during pneumatic conveying. The particle temperature increases with a reduction in particle size and feeding rate, and an increase in gas velocity. Additionally, the heat transfer rate increases with a reduction in particle size and an increase in gas velocity, but the particle feeding rate has a limited effect on heat transfer rate due to the same particle size. Finally, the research on effect of flow behavior on heat transfer suggests that superior heat transfer performance is more readily achieved under the gas-solid flow condition characterized by the lower kinetic energy and larger Re number.

Effect of the conventional shot peening and multiple shot peening on microstructure and residual stress of TC17 titanium alloy

This study examines the residual stress, microstructure, and stress-induced phase transformation of TC17 titanium alloy after different shot peening processes. A comprehensive analysis of the unique impact of shot peening on α-Ti and β-Ti was performed. The results indicate a substantial reduction in the grain size of the deformed layer and the creation of a high density of dislocations. Additionally, increased peening intensity results in decreased grain size, and multiple shot peening promotes further reduction in grain size. Compressive residual stresses were detected in the deformed layer, and multiple shot peening significantly augmented the residual stresses in the surface and near-surface regions. In particular, the highest compressive residual stresses after triple shot peening treatments were measured at −1079 MPa (at a depth of 10 μm for α-Ti) and −792 MPa (at a depth of 50 μm for β-Ti). In addition, multiple shot peening can significantly reduce surface roughness and enhance surface nanocrystallization when approximate surface residual stresses are obtained. Remarkably, the use of single shot peening revealed parallel stacking faults in certain α-Ti samples. However, under multiple shot peening, these stacking faults evolved into face-centered cubic Ti (FCC-Ti) with broader widths and a greater number. The stress-induced phase transition orientation relation was determined to be (0001)HCP//(11¯1)FCC and [21¯1¯0]HCP//[011]FCC, with α-Ti grains being interspersed with FCC-Ti, thus promoting additional grain refinement.
