Tantalum is a promising candidate for chromium electrodeposition in large gun bore coatings. However, brittle β-Ta phase can be easily obtained by magnetron sputtering at low temperatures. In this ...
As coatings have been widely used in aerospace high temperature protection, life prediction remains a major topic in the research on coatings. The mathematical function relationship or life prediction ...
As discussed in chapters 2 and 3, most hot structures are fabricated from superalloys that have been tailored to meet the demands of turbine engine operation. Specific solutions to problems ...
