Kaiyu Luo is currently working as a professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering at Jiangsu University of China. Her interests include the LSP process, analysis of the interface and surface of materials, and investigation of micro-structural evolution and corrosion properties. She had published 20 invention patents and more than 150 papers in peer-reviewed international journals, including International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacturing, Acta Materialia, International Journal of Plasticity, Corrosion Science, Materials & Design, International Journal of Fatigue, Applied Surface Science, etc., which have received over 4000 citations with an H-index of 36 according to the Scopus database.Changyu Wang obtained his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from Jiangsu University. His main research interests are in the fields of surface modification and the corrosion resistance of metallic materials strengthened by LSP. He has published 10 papers in international journals, including the International Journal of Plasticity, Corrosion Science, Applied Surface Science, Materials Science & Engineering A, etc., which have received over 300 citations. Additionally, one paper is a highly cited ESI paper in the engineering academic field.Jinzhong Lu is an internationally well-known professor in laser shock peening (LSP). He first proposed LSP-induced surface nanocrystallization at the surface of metallic materials, first built a relationship between the LSP-induced strain rate and the local micro-structure, and developed micro-structural evolutions of materials with FCC, HCP, and BCC structures. He has published 20 invention patents and more than 150 papers in international journals, including International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacturing, Acta Materialia, International Journal of Plasticity, Corrosion Science, etc., which have received over 5000 citations. His contributions in fundamental research and experimental data provide useful information for researchers and engineers in LSP.
