Spring 2013
For drops sessile on a solid surface, cross flowing air can drive drop oscillation or shedding, based on the balance and interaction of aerodynamic drag force (based on drop size/shape and air speed) and adhesion/capillary forces (based on surface tension and drop size/shape). Better...

On the Mechanical Properties and Failure of Low-Pressure Cold-Sprayed Tungsten Carbide-Nickel Metal Matrix Composite Coatings
DownloadFall 2019
Tungsten carbide-Nickel (WC-Ni) metal matrix coatings (MMC) were fabricated using a low-pressure cold spray unit. The coatings were designed according to 50, 71, and 92 weight percentages of WC in the feedstock powder. These coatings were subsequently prepared for uni-axial quasi-static tensile...
