This research advances the knowledge of the working principles of the Shock-wave Induced Spraying Process (SISP), a thermal spray material deposition technique. Pulses created by a fast acting valve pass through a heated line increasing energy content and interacting with metere…

Cold spray is an additive manufacturing technique in which an inert gas (often helium or nitrogen) is used to accelerate micron scale particles to supersonic velocities through a millimeter scale converging-diverging nozzle. When these particles impact a surface, they can plasti…
