Rahul Alroy Ph.D.’s Post

🌟 Excited to Share Our Latest Research 🌟 We are thrilled to announce the publication of our new study, where we introduce a novel approach for nano-scale characterization of HVAF-sprayed CrC-based composite coatings. 📝 In this study, we propose a novel method utilizing high-speed nanoindentation testing and a k-mean clustering algorithm to spatially map the hardness of these coatings, offering valuable insights into their structure-property correlation and erosion performance. Our approach is particularly significant for characterizing coating systems with heterogeneous microstructures, allowing us to correlate their properties with wear performance accurately. I sincerely thank Harita Seekala, Dr. Sudharshan Phani Pardhasaradhi, and Dr. Sivakumar Govindarajan for their invaluable expertise and dedication throughout this research endeavor. 🙌 Their contributions have been instrumental in bringing this innovative approach to fruition. I invite you to explore our paper and discuss how this novel characterization method can advance our understanding of coating materials and enhance their performance in real-world applications! 🚀 https://lnkd.in/dfhaPxBQ #PhD #MaterialsScience #Research #Coatings #Nanoindentation #HVAF #Innovation #Science #Engineering
