Selection of welding process for hardfacing on carbon steels based on quantitative and qualitative factors
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt has been made to determine the best welding process to hardface boiler grade steels based on quantitative factors (by measuring percentage of dilution) and qualitative factors (using the analytic hierarchy process [AHP]).

Influence of the intermixed interfacial layers on the thermal cycling behaviour of atmospheric plasma sprayed lanthanum zirconate based coatings
TL;DR: In this article, the fabrication, microstructure and high temperature thermal cycling behavior of lanthanum zirconate coatings with five different coating architectures, deposited using atmospheric plasma spray process.

Thermal cycling behaviour of plasma sprayed lanthanum zirconate based coatings under concurrent infiltration by a molten glass concoction
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of cyclic molten CMAS infiltration behavior of the base metal Inconel 738 (BM), the bond coat NiCrAlY (BC), the duplex YSZ, the La2Zr2O7 (LZ), the LZ coating and a five layered specimen with LZ as top layer was performed.

Abrasive slurry wear behavior of stainless steel surface produced by plasma transferred arc hardfacing process
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of operating variables such as abrasive particle size, slurry concentration, speed of rotation and slurry bath temperature on the abrasive slurry wear behavior of a stainless steel surface produced by the Plasma transferred arc (PTA) hardfacing process were analyzed.

Feasibility of surface-coated friction stir welding tools to join AISI 304 grade austenitic stainless steel
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt is made to develop the tools that are capable enough to withstand the shear, impact and thermal forces that occur during friction stir welding of stainless steels.
