Considerable work has been carried out on overlay bond coats in the past several decades
because of its excellent oxidation resistance and good adhesion between the top coat and …

Cracks are fatal defects of ceramic coatings for carbon/carbon (C/C) composites, through
which oxygen will severely destroy the substrate at ultra-high temperature environments …

The study of fracture toughness of pure Al, Cu, Ni and Ti deposited by cold spray was
performed in order to obtain a fundamental understanding of the damage process and …

The influence of thermally sprayed aluminum coatings (Al99%; arc spraying) on the fatigue
strength of gas metal arc welded (GMAW) non-alloyed structural steel specimens with …

The interfacial reactions of the plastic Cu-metal barrier layer in the Al 2 O 3–40 wt% TiO 2
(AT40) composite coating prepared by plasma spraying and its effect on the crack …

Fatigue crack growth in self-standing plasma-sprayed tungsten and molybdenum beams
with artificially introduced notches subjected to pure bending was studied. Fatigue crack …

Fatigue tests on welded small‐scale specimens often do not show a distinct residual stress
influence. An exception is longitudinal stiffeners, which are therefore frequently used to …

The aim of this study is to improve the fatigue limit of thermally sprayed EN 1.0032 steel
substrates by combining turning, diamond smoothing, and temperature regulation during …

Interface durability of thermal spraying ceramics and metal bond-coats is crucial for their
service life. However, most of the studies have focused on improving the interfacial durability …

The method of crack growth rate measurement in miniature single edge notched (SEN)
cantilever specimen at stress ratio R∼− 1 is presented. The resonance circuit is formed by …
