Notice of Article Retraction: Balyakin AB, Nosova EA, Oleynik MA, Zlobin EP. The Effect of Laser Radiation Power and Heat Treatment on The Properties of Heat-Resistant Nickel Alloy Samples. Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University. 2024;4(12):15–29. EDN XMROEV

At the recommendation of the Editorial Board of Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University journal and in accordance with the guidelines of the Association of Scientific Editors and Publishers, the Journal’s Editorial Board conducted a comparative analysis of the two articles. The analysis revealed an almost complete similarity of the following publications:

• Balyakin AB, Nosova EA, Oleynik MA, Zlobin EP. The Effect of Laser Radiation Power and Heat Treatment on The Properties of Heat-Resistant Nickel Alloy Samples. Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University. 2024;4(12):15–29. EDN XMROEV
• Balyakin AB. Process of Direct Laser Growth of Heat-Resistant Alloy: Influence of Power and Heat Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Characteristics. Bulletin of the Siberian State Industrial University. 2023; 4(46): 64–78. doi: 10.57070/2304-4497-2023-4(46)-64-78 EDN STILTW

The Introduction, Research Methods and Principles, Primary Results, Discussion, and Conclusion sections are identical.

However, the list of references differs, and only a few of the same sources are present.

The article entitled The Effect of Laser Radiation Power and Heat Treatment on The Properties of Heat-Resistant Nickel Alloy Samples published in the Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University journal is a semantic copy of the article entitled Process of Direct Laser Growth of Heat-Resistant Alloy: Influence of Power and Heat Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Characteristics published in the Bulletin of the Siberian State Industrial University journal.

Notably, the manuscript was first submitted to the Bulletin of the Siberian State Industrial University journal before being submitted to the Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University journal. Due to the detection of duplicate articles in two scientific editions on May 4, 2025, the Editorial Board of the Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University journal decided to withdraw the article cited as Balyakin AB, Nosova EA, Oleynik MA, Zlobin EP. The Effect of Laser Radiation Power and Heat Treatment on The Properties of Heat-Resistant Nickel Alloy Samples. Transactions of the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University. 2024;4(12):15–29. EDN XMROEV.
