Erosion by Solid Particle Impact

Abstract

A review of the methods and findings associated with solid particle impact erosion of metals and ceramics is presented. Modern theories of particle erosion and critically reviewed experimental observations are brought together and compared. Conclusions regarding the present state of understanding of erosion are given.
