Ahmed, N., Bakare, M., McCartney, D., & Voisey, K. (2010). The effects of microstructural features on the performance gap in corrosion resistance between bulk and HVOF sprayed Inconel 625. Surface and Coatings Technology, 204(14), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2009.12.028

It is commonly observed that there is a performance gap between the corrosion resistance of thermally sprayed coatings and the equivalent bulk material. This is attributed to the significantly modified microstructure of the sprayed coatings. However,...

Investigation into the effect of beam shape on melt pool characteristics using analytical modelling (2010)
Journal Article
Ahmed, N., Voisey, K., & McCartney, D. (2010). Investigation into the effect of beam shape on melt pool characteristics using analytical modelling. Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 48, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.optlaseng.2009.12.013

An established analytical model is used to simulate an extended laser beam. Multiple Gaussian sources are superimposed to form a rectangular beam and results are compared with a single circular Gaussian source model as well as experimental results fr...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of the passive films formed on thermally sprayed and wrought Inconel 625 (2010)
Journal Article
Bakare, M., Voisey, K., Roe, M., & McCartney, D. (2010). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of the passive films formed on thermally sprayed and wrought Inconel 625. Applied Surface Science, 257(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2010.07.066

There is a well known performance gap in corrosion resistance between thermally sprayed corrosion resistant coatings and the equivalent bulk materials. Interconnected porosity has an important and well known effect, however there are additional relev...
