David P. Pope Distinguished Lecture: “Supersonic Collisions of Microparticles on Metal: In-Situ Studies at the Nanosecond and Micrometer Scales” 

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

There are many situations in which small particles impact metals at high speeds, even above the speed of sound. Sometimes these are unintentional (as for foreign object damage or micrometeorite strikes), and sometimes they occur by design (as for surface treatment processes like abrasive spray, peening, or spray coatings). The fundamental physics behind supersonic impacts, […]
