Radial Injection in Suspension High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (S-HVOF) Thermal Spray of Graphene Nanoplatelets for Tribology (2019)
Journal Article

Friction is a major issue in energy efficiency of any apparatus composed of moving mechanical parts, affecting durability and reliability. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) are good candidates for reducing friction and wear, and suspension high velocity...

A Computational and Experimental Investigation into Radial Injection for Suspension High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (SHVOF) Thermal Spray (2019)
Journal Article

Suspension high velocity oxy-fuel thermal spray typically utilizes axial injections of suspension into the combustion chamber. There are certain cases where the oxygen-sensitive nanoparticles benefit from a reduction in the time and temperature spent...

Influence of KCl and HCl on a Laser Clad FeCrAl Alloy: In-Situ SEM and Controlled Environment High Temperature Corrosion (2019)
Journal Article

This study investigated the effects of HCl and KCl on a laser-clad FeCrAl coating at 450 °C in an in-situ ESEM followed by a furnace exposure. In all in-situ TEM cross-sections, three major phases were identified: an iron rich oxide, an iron-chromium...

Inter-particle bonding in cold spray deposition of a gas-atomised and a solution heat-treated Al 6061 powder (2019)
Journal Article

The heat treatment of a number of gas-atomised aluminium alloys prior to cold spraying recently showed that the resultant microstructural modification was accompanied by an improvement in deposition; however, the relationship between the microstructu...
