TL;DR: In this article, a collection of short articles written by experts in thermal spray who were asked to present a snapshot of the current state of their specific field, give their views on current challenges faced by the field and provide some guidance as to the R&D required to meet these challenges.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of recent developments in the area of thermal spray coatings from liquid feedstock such as suspensions and solution precursors, and provide an up-to-date overview and trace the current trends.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used particle temperature measurements at different current levels to detect potential degrees of evaporation of Gd2Zr2O7 by atmospheric plasma spraying.

TL;DR: In this paper, the very low-pressure plasma spray (VLPPS) process has been developed with the aim of depositing uniform and thin coatings with coverage of a large area by plasma spraying.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the difficulties and the development of process related solutions by employing diagnostic tools for thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) for gas turbines by plasma spraying.
