Abstract

SUMMARY There can be little doubt that the emerging surface technologies which enable surface properties to be tailored to meet specific design criteria will expand significantly in coming years. A new journal, Surface Engineering, was launched by the Institute of Metals (London) in January 1985 in response to a demand from designers and materials engineers for a single comprehensive source of up-to-date information covering all aspects of surface engineering. The present paper has been abstracted largely from Surface Engineering.
