TL;DR: In this paper, a modified water-stabilized atmospheric plasma spraying set-up is used to deposit uniform and functionally graded steel/tungsten coatings at elevated substrate temperatures.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the oxidation rate constant of the yttrium-containing thin film is 105 times less than that of pure tungsten, while the oxidation of exposed samples has proven no effect of plasma exposure on the oxidation resistance.

TL;DR: Smart tungsten-based alloys are under development as plasma-facing components for a future fusion power plant as mentioned in this paper, which are planned to adjust their properties depending on environmental conditions: acting as a sputter-resistant plasmafacing material during plasma operation and suppressing the sublimation of radioactive Tungsten oxide in case of an accident on the power plant.

TL;DR: In this paper, the radial electric field Er can be deduced from the radial force balance when small amplitude resonant magnetic perturbations are applied to the plasma boundary (Br/Btor ~ 10?4).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used field assisted sintering technology to achieve 94% dense materials with a reasonable (30%) fiber fraction and showed step-wise cracking while the material is still able to bear rising load, the typical pseudo-ductile behavior of a composite.
