surface engineering
Surface Engineering is investigated by means of application, optimisation and analysis of various coating techniques, such as Thermal Spraying, Sputtering and Chemical Vapour Deposition. This group is a node of the National Centre for Plasma Science and Technology (NCPST) in Dublin City University. The following table decribes the current research in the area:
