Abstract: A water attraction dispatch system includes a water attraction having a plurality of sensors and a dispatch controller. The dispatch controller is configured to receive attraction condition data from the plurality of sensors of the water attraction and determine a dispatch status of the water attraction based on the attraction condition data. The dispatch status may be a permit dispatch status or a deny dispatch status. The dispatch controller is configured to transmit a signal indicative of the dispatch status to a controller of the water attraction.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of applying a coating to an article. A coating material is disposed on an article. The coating material is accelerated towards the article. And, a solid-phase bond is formed between the coating material and the article.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for applying a barrier coating comprises: mixing a coating material and a structural enhancer to form a mixture, applying the mixture to a component using thermal spraying to form the coating, and controlling a concentration of the structural enhancer in the coating. The structural enhancer is selected from the group consisting of oxide, carbide, nitride, intermetallic material, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a coated turbine article comprising a uniform enhanced coating on at least a portion of the turbine article, wherein the enhanced coating comprises a coating material and a structural enhancer, wherein the structural enhancer is selected from the group consisting of oxide, carbide, nitride, intermetallic material, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing, wherein the structural enhancer has an average particle size, as measured along a major axis, of about 0.01 ?m to about 100 ?m.
