...Hemant Agiwal; Christian Baumann; Stephan Krall; Hwasung Yeom; Kumar Sridharan; Friedrich Bleicher; Frank E. Pfefferkorn The objective of this work is to study friction surfacing process variability when depositing multilayered coatings. This is motivated by the need to maintain deposition quality...

...Sabrina Vogt; Marco Göbel; Eliana Fu The most commonly used surface protection technologies against wear and corrosion are electrochemical hard chromium plating or thermal spraying. But these coating technologies have limits. Additionally, due to health concerns, hard chromium plating is under...

... substrate. Friction surfacing has many potential applications in joining, coating for corrosion resistance, and repair of degraded components. This article presents a review of the basic principles and latest research organized by processing techniques and variations, thermomechanical transfer...

... is not absorbed by the surface. In this study, an attempt has been made to increase the absorptivity of the glass material by using a coating on the surface of the material. Glass has been used in this study because of its extensive applications in the micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems. The optimal machining...

...Martin Yi Zhang; Gary J. Cheng A novel methodology of laser coating of mixture of bioceramic and titanium nanoparticles onto metal implants is developed in this work. Feasibility of this approach is demonstrated via both multiphysics simulation and experiments. Treating incident laser...

... the assumption of a homogeneous material deformation. Such assumption will be eliminated in Part II where the friction coefficient is more directly measured. Part I also investigates the validity of using high-strength/low-friction die coatings to improve the tribological characteristics observed in micro...
