Wear behaviour optimization of TIG parameters on wear behavior of sic embedded coatings using Taguchi approach

The use of a tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding torch heat source has resulted in the development of an economical route for surface modification of engineering parts, giving similar results to the more expensive high power laser technique. In this study, ceramic-based embedded composite coating has b...
