In Azarmi, F., Balani, K., Eden, T., Hussain, T., Li, H., Shinoda, K. and Toma, F.-L. (eds.) Proceedings of the 2018 International thermal spray conference (ITSC 2018), 7-10 May 2018, Orlando, USA. Ohio: ASM International [online], pages 490-495. Available from: http://www.proceedings.com/47648.html

Thermally sprayed coatings have residual stresses due to the processing techniques where the particles go through thermal softening/melting, high velocity impact and rapid solidification. The nature and magnitude of residual stresses in these coating... Read More about Neutron diffraction residual stress measurements in suspension HVOF sprayed Al2O3 and YSZ coatings..
