Yttria-stabilized zirconia coatings were deposited by plasma spraying and heat-treated at
1100° C for 50, 100, 150, and 200 h in air, respectively. Mechanical properties including …

Commercial plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were investigated in an effort
to elucidate the failure modes during thermal-cycling. Residual stresses in the thermally …

Only a few of the numerous studies on plasma-sprayed thick thermal barrier coatings
(TTBCs) have focused on the relationship between the thermal shock resistance of the …

The failure mechanisms of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) subjected to a thermal load are
still not entirely understood. Thermal stresses and/or oxidation cause the coating to fail and …

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are designed to be able to withstand a severe environment
with coupled conditions including high temperature and thermal stresses. However, the …

The mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of plasma-sprayed 56 wt% Y 2 O 3-
stabilized ZrO 2 thick thermal barrier coatings (TTBCs) deposited with different critical …

A three-dimensional finite element model of a conventional plasma-sprayed thermal barrier
coating was set up with an irregular top-coat/bond-coat interface that was modelled based …

The microstructure of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) of 7 wt.% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (7YSZ)
deposited using the solution-precursor plasma spray (SPPS) method has:(i) controlled …

It is known that residual stress is the main factor causing the final failure of thermal barrier
coatings (TBCs). However, it is still unclear how the stress governs the cracking sequence …

Abstract Failure in Atmospheric Plasma-Sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is
associated with the thermo-mechanical stresses developing due to the thermally grown …
