Performance characterization of Ni60-WC coating on steel processed with supersonic laser deposition
(2015)Ni60-WC particles are used to improve the wear resistance of hard-facing steel due to their high hardness. An emerging technology that combines laser with cold spraying to deposit the hard-facing coatings is known as ... -
A Comparison of Coherence Based Acoustic Source Identification Techniques
(2005)Four techniques of source identification are examined and the performance of each evaluated with experimental data. The procedures are all frequency domain methods and depend to some extent on the coherence function. The ... -
Advanced diamond-reinforced copper composite coatings via cold spray and material characterization
(2016)Diamond reinforced copper matrix composites (DCMC) has great potentials for heat sinks applications due to their excellent thermal properties. Cold Spray, as a relatively emerging coating technique, is able to ... -
The deposition of pure aluminium via cold spray for the corrosion protection of steel
(2016)In this paper, development and characterization of cold sprayed protective pure Al coatings on a non regular steel surface will be proposed. The research is oriented to the optimization of the deposition ... -
A Theoretical Overview of Unlearning in Engineering
(2016)Unlearning is the deliberate undoing or reversal of what has been previously learned. This skill has been acknowledged in business and academia as being increasingly important for engineers in a highly changeable 21st ... -
Conditions for CET in a gamma TiAl alloy
(2015)The solidification of gamma TiAl alloys is of interest to the aerospace and automotive industries. A gamma TiAl multicomponent alloy: Ti–45.5Al–4.7Nb–0.2C–0.2B (at. %) has been the focus of a study to investigate the ... -
Columnar to Equiaxed Transition in Peritectic TiAl Based Alloy Studied by a Power-Down Technique

An experimental-numerical method for estimating heat transfer in a Bridgman furnace
(2014)Direct measurement of heat flux and heat transfer coefficients in a Bridgman furnace is not always possible using traditional methods. This study characterised a vertical tubular Bridgman furnace using experimental data ... -
A Front Tracking Model for Transient Solidification of Al-7wt%Si in a Bridgman Furnace
(2012)The Bridgman furnace is widely used in industry and research. This paper outlines a working onedimensional model for tracking the columnar solidification front in a Bridgman furnace where the pulling velocity, and hence ... -
How might people near national roads be affected by traffic noise as electric vehicles increase in number? A laboratory study of subjective evaluations of environmental noise
(2016)We face a likely shift to electric vehicles (EVs) but the environmental and human consequences of this are not yet well understood. Simulated auditory traffic scenes were synthesized from recordings of real conventional ... -
Characterization of Low Noise Technologies Applied to a Full Scale Fuselage Mounted Nose Landing Gear
