The Many Faces of Live Bait Theatre
Authors: Burnett J.A. 
Published: June 2023

Does disaster strike only at the most inopportune times? Or do ordinary events become disasters largely as a result of their timing? Take the Great Flood of 2005, for example. If the hot water heater at Live Bait Theatre in Sackville, New Brunswick, had burst at a time when someone was around to notice, there might have been no crisis. Some one would just have turned off the water supply and called the plumber. Instead , the plumbing let go late on a grey March afternoon, just after everyone had left the theatre for an early supper, planning to be back in a few hours for the opening of Little Shop of Horrors, being presented that night by Black Tie Productions, a Mount Allison University student company. By the time the receptionist in the doctor’s office next door noticed a small stream winding across her waiting-room floor, water had been spewing from the broken tank for more than an hour, soaking everything within reach: carpets, walls, stairs and box upon box of props and costumes, scripts, posters and memorabilia.

One Yellow Rabbit's Nostalgic Romp with Fascism: Review of Ilsa, Queen of the Nazi Love Camp
Authors: Bennett Melanie 
Published: June 2023

“Nazis. We love them.” Tony Barta, on Hollywood's fascination with fascism1 Ilsa, Queen of the Nazi Love Camp kicked off One Yellow Rabbit's twenty-fifth anniversary celebration. A dark musical satire, the play follows the travels of Usa (Denise Clarke) and the Colonel (Michael Green), two Nazis whose quest for Hitler's lost offspring leads them to the small community of Eckville, Alberta and to Holocaust denier Jim Keegstra (Andy Curtis). All the performers from the original 1987 production return to the stage, including live musicians, composer David Rhymer and violinist Karl Roth. Writer—director Blake Brooker, together with Rhymer, conceived Ilsa in 1987 as a response to the real-life case of Jim Keegstra, a high school teacher in Eckville, near Red Deer, who was teaching his social studies students that the Holocaust never took place. Keegstra, a former mayor, was stripped of his teaching certificate and charged with promoting hate speech.
Surviving the Nineties: Who’s Going to Pay?
Authors: Filewod Alan 
Published: June 2023

This issue was originally planned as a nuts-and-bolts look at the administrative techniques that Canadian theatres are evolving to carry them through the next decade. Very quickly it turned into something else. The recurring theme through this issue is the ominous funding climate, made even more threatening by the Free Trade Agreement and the Goods and Services Tax. To this CTR can add our own apprehension: the federal government’s recent move to eliminate postal subsidies for Canadian magazines threatens the survival of small-circulation periodicals. These issues are not trivial. For cultural organizations on marginal budgets (that is to say, most of them), the government’s cost-cutting measures raise the spectre of unprecedented crisis.
Never Swim Alone & This is a Play; The Ends of the Earth; Come Good Rain
Authors: Maclvor Daniel , Panych Morris , Seremba George , Hall Lynda 
Published: June 2023

Two themes link these plays: alienation, and each individual’s struggle to survive in a world where communication and compassion are lacking. Daniel Maclvor, an actor, director, producer, writer and the artistic director of Da Da Kamera, has won seven Dora Mavor Moore Awards. He has been nominated five times for the Chalmers Canadian Play Award, including a nomination in 1991 for Never Swim Alone, the same year that he won for his play House Humans. In her introduction to Never Swim Alone & This isa Play, Carol Bolt identifies one of the major qualities which make Maclvor’s work so well-received: through direct address, his characters welcome the audience to the theatre, and make each spectator feel that they make a difference.
Creating a Theatre in Your Classroom
Authors: Warren Bemie , Senyk Valerie 
Published: June 2023

A good book gets marked up fast, with underlining, starred paragraphs and notes scribbled in the margins. A good book delivers ideas that are important and useful to the reader, and answers questions or generates new ones. Creating a Theatre in Your Classroom, edited by Bernie Warren, is just such a book, although its pink jacket and unprepossessing title might put you off. But in this case, the shallowness is only skin-deep.

Morphology and Wetting Behavior of Atmospheric Plasma Sprayed Titanium Dioxide
Authors: Sharifi N. , Pugh M. , Moreau C. , Dolatabadi A. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of surface morphology on the wetting behavior of atmospheric plasma sprayed (APS) titanium dioxide. It is shown that with appropriate control of particle temperature and velocity and the use of stearic acid treatments, it is possible to achieve TiO2 surfaces with water contact angles as high as 144°, which is close to a superhydrophobic state. Such coatings were found to exhibit a rough and irregular surface morphology and were obtained by increasing particle velocity while reducing particle temperature.
Integration of Electrical Functionality by Transplantation of Cold Sprayed Electrically Conductive Cu Tracks via Injection Molding
Authors: Bobzin K. , Öte M. , Linke T. F. , Schulz C. , Hopmann C. , Wunderle J. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This work evaluates an in-mold spraying process for the production of injection molded plastic parts with integrated Cu pathways. Prior to injection, Cu is cold sprayed on mold insert surfaces, forming a metal layer that is subsequently transferred to the plastic part. The success of the process hinges on the bond strength of the Cu to the mold, which depends on surface conditions, mold material, and spray parameters. In this study, Cu powder is cold sprayed on carbon tool steel coupons prepared by grit blasting using different grit sizes. The coupons were sprayed at longer stand-off distances using lower gas flow rates than usual to reduce particle impact velocity and thus bonding strength. Coating cross-sections were examined and surface roughness, bond strength, and residual stress were measured. The results show that bond strength varies almost linearly with root-mean-square surface roughness, R∆q, and that reducing line distance or scanning step size can improve the transferability of the Cu layer.

Authors: Delloro F. , Faessel M. , Proudhon H. , Jeulin D. , Jeandin M. , Meillot E. , Bianchi L. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this work, a numerical model of the cold spray process was developed to reproduce microstructures obtained in coatings by simulating the deformation of impinging particles and resulting coating build-up. The model employs a library of particle images generated by x-ray microtomography. To each image, a velocity is assigned and the deformation that would be produced by particle impact is estimated by means of finite element analysis and stored for later use. Based on the results, the ing approach has good potential for simulating coating microstructures that can be achieved through cold spraying.

Authors: Tillmann W. , Baumann I. , Hollingsworth P. , Dildrop M. , Eilers A. , Müller H. , Wiederkehr T. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
With appropriate process control, near-net-shape coatings can be successfully applied to parts with complex geometries using HVOF spraying and fine cermet powders. This study assesses the influence of critical process parameters on the deposition rate and properties of HVOF coatings produced using fine agglomerated WC-12Co powder (2-10 µm) with nanosized WC particles. Spray angle, standoff distance, gun velocity, track pitch, and backside air cooling pressure were varied during the experiments in order to determine their effect on coating hardness, roughness, and porosity as well as deposition efficiency. Variations in spray parameters were found to have a significant effect on deposition rate and coating properties.
Effect of Al Enrichment by Pack Cementation of FeCr Coatings Deposited by HVOF
Authors: Bellucci A. , Bellini S. , Pileggi R. , Stocchi D. , Satu T. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this study, FeCr coatings with different percentages of chromium were deposited on Grade 91 steel substrates by HVOF spraying, followed by aluminum enrichment via pack cementation. Overaluminizing parameters were optimized to prevent changes in the substrate microstructure, making it possible to determine the role of Cr and the effect of Al enrichment on anticorrosion behavior. The combination of HVOF spraying and pack cementation are shown to be adequate techniques for depositing intermediate and top layers in protective coating systems.
Influence of Substrate Temperature on Adhesion Strength of Cold-Sprayed Coatings
Authors: Watanabe Y. , Yoshida C. , Atsumi K. , Yamada M. , Fukumoto M. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This study investigates the influence of substrate temperature on the adhesion strength of cold spray coatings. Copper, aluminum, and iron powders were deposited on preheated substrates similar in composition with the respective powder. Adhesion strength was determined by shear adhesion testing. The results show that substrate preheating improves adhesion strength for specific combinations of coating and substrate materials, likely due to the relief of thermal stress and the formation of an oxide layer on the substrate surface.

Authors: Jadidi M. , Mousavi M. , Jabbari F. , Moghtadernejad S. , Dolatabadi A. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this study, a 3D two-way coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian approach is used to model the plasma jet and droplet-particle trajectory, velocity, and temperature achievable by suspension plasma spraying. A Reynolds stress model is used to account for turbulence and the effect of the substrate on the flow field and a Kelvin-Helmholtz Rayleigh-Taylor breakup model is used to predict the secondary breakup of the suspension. The focus of this work is on particle behavior near the substrate. Flat substrates placed at stand-off distances ranging from 40 to 60 mm are modeled to provide detailed information on particle impact behavior.
Transient Thermal Analysis of NiCrBSi Coatings Manufactured Via Hybrid Plasma Spray Process by Finite Element Method
Authors: Liu J. , Bolot R. , Costil S. , Planche M. P. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this work, numerical modeling is used to simulate the effects of laser remelting as a post treatment and as an in-situ component of a hybrid plasma spraying process. Initially, a single-pass 2D model is used to simulate the laser post-treatment process in order to obtain relationships between melting pool depth, relative scanning velocity, and laser power. A 3D finite-element model is then used to study temperature variations during multi-layer deposition of a NiCr alloy by plasma spraying with in-situ laser melting. The effects of phase change are taken into account by defining the enthalpy of the material as a function of temperature. Predicted melting pool depth corresponded well with experimental values.
Study on Thermal Conductivity of Iron-Based Alloy Coatings Prepared by Wire Arc Spraying Process
Authors: Wei J. X. , Li R. , Zhou Z. , He D. Y. , Jiang J. M. , Wang Z. H. , Wang G. H. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this study, FeCrB coatings are deposited by wire arc spraying using powder cored wires to investigate the factors that affect thermal conductivity. Experimental results show that increasing boron content in the wires reduces oxide content in the coatings, which increases thermal conductivity. Annealing also increases thermal conductivity, which can be explained by grain growth and a reduction in porosity.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
This study assesses the potential use of thermally sprayed dicalcium diiron pentaoxide (Ca2Fe2O5) for thermoelectric generators. Ca2Fe2O5 coatings up to 2 mm thick were produced by atmospheric plasma spraying and examined. Compared to the bulk material, the coatings exhibit lower thermal and electrical conductivity. The Seebeck coefficient could not be measured, and the thermoelectric performance was inadequate. The limitations derive not only from the thermal spray process, but also the material itself.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
The work presented in this paper addresses some of the challenges of manufacturing thermoelectric (TE) generators by thermal spraying. One of the main obstacles is achieving good coat-on-coat bonding between different types of materials. The coatings must also be mechanically stable and optimized for their respective function. At least four types of materials are required, including electrical insulators, conductors, and thermoelectrically active p- and n-type semiconductors. Four ceramic and three metal feedstock powers were deposited by APS, HVOF, and HVAF spraying using special masking systems, substrate pretreatments, and layer thickness monitoring. After process optimization for each material, multilayer TE generator modules were successfully produced.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
This study assesses the fireside erosion-corrosion behavior of nanostructured NiCr coatings in a power plant boiler operating at 750 °C. In the experiments, Ni-20Cr nanocrystalline powder was synthesized by ball milling and deposited on T91 boiler steel substrates by HVOF spraying. Coated and uncoated steel specimens were thermally cycled in the superheater zone of a coal fired boiler. After 15 heating and cooling cycles, the specimens were examined and erosion-corrosion kinetics were established via weight-change and thickness-loss measurements. The results show that the nanostructured coatings reduced the erosion-corrosion rate of T91 steel by 85%.
