Effect of thermal exposure on the wear and phase stability of HVOF-deposited WC-17Co coatings

Wear-induced material loss is a major concern in industrial applications, driving the development of wear-resistant surface coatings. High-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying is widely used to deposit coatings with high bond strength, low porosity, and improved wear resistance. Amo...

Experimental investigation on the shear strength, consolidation and permeability characteristics of cross-linked biopolymer-stabilized soils

This study investigates the influence of guar gum (G), xanthan gum (X), and their cross-linked blend on the shear strength and consolidation characteristics of soils with contrasting plasticity and mineralogical characteristics. Direct shear, one-dimensional consolidation, consta...
