Electronic devices, including those in telecommunications and high-power systems, generate heat during normal operation. That heat must be dissipated to avoid junction temperatures exceeding tolerable ...

Cold spray coating is a solid‐state deposition process in which fine powders are accelerated to high velocities and directed onto substrates, forming dense, adherent coatings without melting the ...

Ellsworth Air Force Base now has a quicker and more cost-effective way to repair panels on B-1s. It’s called cold spray technology. “We take fine metallic powder and we ramp it up with really high ...

The new material, created by spraying a tantalum coating on stainless steel, can withstand extreme conditions inside fusion reactors. This advancement enables more efficient fusion reactors that are ...

An international team of researchers has solved a puzzling phenomenon whereby strangely beautiful, vortex-like structures appear between materials deposited onto engineering components used in ...

Cold spray process applies powdered metal at a highly accelerated velocity – the speed of sound or faster – on a surface using an applicator and nozzle quickly and effectively. (Janes) The US Navy ...

The Australian Navy is researching cold spray, a form of additive manufacturing, to repair submarines. The tech blasts surfaces with tiny bits of metal at high speed, binding it to a surface. The ...

Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission Kikuchi diffraction (TKD) are providing valuable insights into the cold spray deposition process, offering information that other ...
