A smooth polished surface has a great potential to lead to low friction and wear in internal combustion engines (ICE). Alternative methods to create a smooth dimpled surface on a hypereutectic aluminium (aluminium die cast) ADC12 substrate for frictional improvements are evaluated in this study usin...
