On the Cover:
A schematic overview of the thermal-spray process. The boxed photograph at center left shows a dual-injection plasma-spray method for depositing metal­ceramic graded coatings. This approach is being investigated by Fincke et al. at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL), sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, Basic Energy Sciences Engineering Research Program. Above the photograph is a process simulation of the approach (a collaborative effort between INEEL and SUNY-Stony Brook). The three-dimensional splat profile at bottom right was obtained through Zygo noncontact profilometry, and the micrograph at far right depicts the metallographic cross section of the metal­ceramic graded coating. See the technical theme that begins on page 12.
