Education, conceived as the sharing of knowledge between individuals and generations of
individuals, represents a powerful tool by which human kind improves their understanding of …

In this paper, the application of cold spray (CS) coating deposition technology as additive
manufacturing technique is discussed. Absence of material melting during CS deposition …

Cold spraying (CS) is a relatively new material deposition technique based on the
phenomenon of high-velocity particle/substrate impact. In this process, the powder is …

Increasingly, due to their interesting applications, research on metal/ceramic interfaces
created by cold spray is being undertaken. Metal matrix composites and metal coatings on …

The cold spray process and laser-induced projectile impact test (LIPIT) are used to deposit
Ti powder particles on sintered polycrystalline Al 2 O 3. Whereas LIPIT allows real-time …

Forming a high-quality metallic coating on a ceramic substrate remains a challenge. The
existing layered ceramic-metal composites (LCMCs) used in electrical engineering and …

The removal of heat across composite structures comprising a metal-ceramic interface is a
common engineering challenge. To maximise heat removal, it is essential that the thermal …

The influence of thermal interface resistance is an important design problem for the
optimisation of heat transfer systems. For thermoelectric generators (TEG), it can limit the …

The metallization of ceramics by means of cold gas spraying (CGS) has been in the focus of
numerous publications in the recent past. However, the bonding mechanism of metallic …

The present work summarizes the most important results of a research project dealing with
the comprehensive investigation of the bonding mechanisms between cold-sprayed Al …
