Thin film technology has been widely used in various industries to improve the mechanical,
physical, and chemical properties of bulk materials. This review paper provides an overview …

The primary issues in the Himalayan Rivers are sediment and cavitation degradation of the
hydroelectric power turbine components. During the monsoon season, heavy material is …

This work studies the effect of mechanical properties and microstructure on sliding wear and
cavitation erosion behaviors of cermet coatings deposited via high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) …

In this study, experimental ball-milling mixed feedstock powder (BMP) and spray-drying
feedstock powder (SDP) were prepared, and the WC–12Co/Cr 3 C 2–25NiCr coatings were …

This paper aims at the hydro-abrasive erosion (HAE) behaviors in simulated seawater
slurries under different flow velocities (FVs) and sand concentrations (SCs) of high-velocity …

With widespread applications of hard ceramic/cermet coatings as wear-resisting materials, it
is becoming pertinent to study their responses to hydro-abrasive erosion (HAE) and …

The influence of temperature on the corrosion and cavitation erosion-corrosion (CE-C)
behavior of Al 10 Cr 28 Co 28 Ni 34 high-entropy alloy (HEA) coating in seawater was …

The cavitation-silt erosion (CSE) has caused severe technical challenges and economic
losses to the hydro-turbine operated in silt-laden river. In this manuscript, two hardfacing (ie …

A well-known hard material (VC) has not been explored as potential candidate for surface
modifications to overcome the problem of cavitation erosion (CE) in hydro machinery …

In this study, three kinds of WC-based cermet coatings including WC–CoCr coating, WC–Ni
coating and WC–Cr 3 C 2–Ni coating were prepared by the high-velocity oxygen-fuel …
