About
Yee Ng is a materials engineer whose research focuses on surface modification and advanced manufacturing processes for high-performance alloys. Their work centers on enhancing the mechanical properties and durability of laser-cladded coatings, particularly Inconel 718, a nickel-based superalloy widely used in aerospace and energy applications. Ng’s most cited study, "Grinding- and robotic hammer peening-induced modifications in the near-surface regions of laser-cladded Inconel 718 coatings" (2024), investigates how post-processing techniques like grinding and robotic hammer peening alter residual stresses, microstructure, and surface integrity. This work has garnered 12 citations, reflecting its relevance to improving coating performance and extending component life. Ng’s contributions are notable for bridging the gap between additive manufacturing and surface engineering, offering practical insights for industrial adoption. Their research is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to understand how mechanical treatments can optimize the reliability of laser-cladded parts. With a growing citation record, Ng is establishing themselves as a key voice in the field of surface modification for advanced materials.
