About

A. B. Lukhter is a researcher specializing in laser additive manufacturing and surface engineering, with a particular focus on laser powder cladding—a technique used to enhance the durability of industrial equipment parts. Their most-cited work, "Selection of rational modes of laser powder cladding" (2020), provides a systematic experimental study on optimizing surfacing parameters for single-track deposition, offering practical guidance for improving wear resistance in high-stress components. Though early in their citation impact, with 4 citations to date, this work contributes foundational insights into process parameter selection, a critical step for scaling laser cladding in industrial applications. Lukhter’s research bridges materials science and manufacturing, addressing the challenge of extending part lifespan through precise, energy-efficient surfacing methods. Their contributions are particularly relevant to sectors such as mining, energy, and heavy machinery, where component failure leads to costly downtime. As the field of laser-based surface modification grows, Lukhter’s work on rational mode selection serves as a stepping stone for engineers and researchers aiming to standardize cladding processes for broader industrial adoption.
