Surface engineering is the phenomenon which facilitates the application of various technologies in a broad spectrum of industrial activities. It was developed by investigating multiple phenomena which result in the destruction of surfaces like abrasion, corrosion, fatigue, and disruption. Soon enough, it was acknowledged that most of the advances in technology were limited with surface requirements. From oil and gas exploitation, to mining and manufacturing, various fields have generated critical problems in technological development due to surfaces. With time, there has been development of new techniques which have served as avenues for enhancing surface properties like abrasion, wear rate and corrosion resistance. Some of the latest advancements in surface engineering have been discussed in this book.
