Abstract
Resonant ultrasound spectroscopy was utilized to determine the mechanical properties of a planar interface between a cold-sprayed iron deposit and an aluminum alloy substrate. The measurements were done at room temperature and with a thermal cycle from room temperature to 500 °C. The properties of the interface were assessed by analyzing the resonant frequencies of a sandwich-like sample by means of a numerical model. While the as-sprayed deposit at the room temperature exhibited a perfect adhesion to the substrate, the thermal cycle led to deterioration of the properties due to precipitation of FeAl3 along the interface and subsequent cracking. The modal analysis enabled localization of the damage zone along the interfaces and simulating its temperature evolution during the cooling run.
