About
Ana-Maria Roman is a materials scientist and manufacturing engineer whose research centers on advanced surface engineering and precision machining of composite materials. Her most cited work, "Analysis of water jet cutting of metal-ceramic elements made through atmospheric plasma spraying technique" (2022), has garnered 7 citations and represents a significant contribution to the field of abrasive waterjet machining. In this study, Roman systematically investigated the cutting parameters and surface integrity of metal-ceramic coatings produced via atmospheric plasma spraying, demonstrating how water jet technology can effectively process these hard, brittle composites without thermal damage. Her research bridges the gap between coating deposition and post-processing, offering practical solutions for industries requiring high-performance ceramic-metal components, such as aerospace and biomedical engineering. Roman's work is notable for its rigorous experimental methodology and its focus on optimizing process parameters to achieve superior cut quality and edge finish. Though early in her career, her findings have already informed subsequent studies on hybrid manufacturing techniques, establishing her as a promising voice in the intersection of thermal spray coatings and non-traditional machining.
