Popis: This work employs an example of a through process experiment systematic approach to study the relationship among powder properties, cold spray (CS) processing parameters, and consolidated specimen behavior through a combined effort of characterization methods and computational models. This process will allow for the systematic isolation of variables that can affect powder and CS deposit properties. In this study, Al 7075 powder was used as feedstock to produce a CS coating using industry-standard processing parameters. Techniques such as SEM, EDS, XRD, nanoindentation, and tensile testing were used to characterize the properties of both the feedstock powder and CS deposits. In addition, computational thermodynamic modeling was used to guide the interpretation of microstructural features of the powder and CS specimen. Finally, an additive yield strength model was employed to quantify the strengthening components introduced through the CS process.
