As discussed originally by Sousa et al. in Ref.[1], metal additive manufacturing (AM) has
become much more common in the material processing world due to the accelerated …

The surface of an initially flat, platinum-modified nickel aluminide bond coat formed on a
single crystal superalloy is shown to progressively roughen (“rumple”) with thermal cycling in …

Fe-based amorphous coatings are typically known for their high hardness and wear
resistance and are often applied using thermal spraying techniques. When cladding these …

A concept to improve hardness and thermal stability of unstable multilayer alloys is
presented based on control of the coherency strain such that the driving force for …

Sintering of thermal barrier coatings changes their key properties, such as thermal
conductivity and thermal shock resistance, thus adversely impacting their reliability. We …

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are thermally insulating coatings used in hot sections of gas
turbines with temperature> 1400° C. Present work pursues controlled bimodal …

The field of thin films has gone through a great development in recent decades. Besides the
multiple applications of thin films, an increasing competence can be observed in tailoring the …

Complex concentrated alloys (CCAs) are structural and functional materials of the future with
excellent mechanical, physical, and chemical properties. Due to the equiatomic …

After depositing a Ni–32Co–20Cr–8Al–0.5 Y–1Si–0.03 B (wt%) bond coat on a Ni‐base
superalloy using arc ion plating (AIP), a ceramic top coat with hollow spherical powder of …

Cold spray processing is a solid-state coating technique and an emerging method for
additive manufacturing, in which metal powder particles are bonded through high-velocity …
