Abrasive wear behaviour of conventional and large-particle tungsten carbide-based cermet coatings as a function of abrasive size and type (2011)
Journal Article
Kamdi, Z., Shipway, P., Voisey, K., & Sturgeon, A. (2011). Abrasive wear behaviour of conventional and large-particle tungsten carbide-based cermet coatings as a function of abrasive size and type. Wear, 271(9-10), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wear.2010.12.060

Abrasive wear behaviour of materials can be assessed using a wide variety of testing methods, and the relative performance of materials will tend to depend upon the testing procedure employed. In this work, two cermet type coatings have been examined...

Scanning electrochemical microscopy at thermal sprayed anti-corrosion coatings: effect of thermal spraying on heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics (2011)
Journal Article
Niaz, A., Boatwright, A., Voisey, K., & Walsh, D. A. (2011). Scanning electrochemical microscopy at thermal sprayed anti-corrosion coatings: effect of thermal spraying on heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics. Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry, 657(1-2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jelechem.2011.03.009

The effect of thermal spraying on the electrochemical activity of an anti-corrosion superalloy was studied quantitatively using scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). The superalloy used was Inconel 625 (a Ni base superalloy) and thin coatings o...

Heat affected zones and oxidation marks in fiber laser-oxygen cutting of mild steel (2011)
Journal Article
Al-Mashikhi, S., Powell, J., Kaplan, A., & Voisey, K. (2011). Heat affected zones and oxidation marks in fiber laser-oxygen cutting of mild steel. Journal of Laser Applications, 23(4), https://doi.org/10.2351/1.3614404

The effect of cutting speed and sheet thickness on surface oxidation and heat affected zones (HAZs) has been investigated for laser-oxygen cutting of mild steel sheet with a fiber laser. Optical and scanning electron micrographs were used to determin... Read More about Heat affected zones and oxidation marks in fiber laser-oxygen cutting of mild steel.

Fibre laser cutting of thin section mild steel: an explanation of the 'striation free' effect (2011)
Journal Article
Powell, J., Al-Mashikhi, S., Kaplan, A., & Voisey, K. (2011). Fibre laser cutting of thin section mild steel: an explanation of the 'striation free' effect. Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 49(8), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.optlaseng.2011.03.011

This paper presents the results of an experimental and theoretical investigation into the phenomenon of 'striation free cutting', which is a feature of fibre laser/oxygen cutting of thin section mild steel. The paper concludes that the creation of ve... Read More about Fibre laser cutting of thin section mild steel: an explanation of the 'striation free' effect.

Mechanical properties and microstructure of VPS and HVOF CoNiCrAlY coatings (2011)
Journal Article
Saeidi, S., Voisey, K., & McCartney, D. (2011). Mechanical properties and microstructure of VPS and HVOF CoNiCrAlY coatings. Journal of Thermal Spray Technology, 20(6), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11666-011-9666-5

HVOF and VPS coatings were sprayed using a Praxair (CO-210-24) CoNiCrAlY powder. Free standing coatings underwent vacuum annealing at different temperatures for times of up to 840h. Feedstock powder, as-sprayed and annealed coatings were characterise... Read More about Mechanical properties and microstructure of VPS and HVOF CoNiCrAlY coatings.
