TL;DR: In this article, an original experimental set-up was designed to discriminate the particles as a function of the levels of velocity to investigate the influence of this parameter on adhesion, which can change dramatically depending on particle position from the core of the jet.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to overcome the south-pole problem, which can lead to a decrease in the overall adhesion strength despite the local adhesion being strong.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of surface conditions focusing on active newly formed surface on aluminum particle deposition is studied and the mechanical properties of low-pressure cold-sprayed aluminum coatings are investigated by four-point bending tests.

TL;DR: In this article, the Couple Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) numerical approach was proposed to solve the high strain rate deformation problem in cold spray particle deposition.

TL;DR: Examining how social support and self‐efficacy mediate the relationship between social distress and emotional distress in head and neck cancer patients found it important to investigate the buffering effect of social support on patients' social distress or of the coping skill of self-efficacy.
