Failure in plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings systems mostly takes place in the
ceramic topcoat or at the interface between the topcoat and the bondcoat. The failure …

Thermal barrier coatings consisting of a NiCrAlY bond coating and a 1.4 mm thick partially
stabilised zirconia top coating were air plasma sprayed onto grit blasted nickel-base …

The elastic response of atmospheric plasma-sprayed coatings was investigated using
Vickers and spherical indenter geometries. In both cases a strong dependency of the …

Thermal barrier coating with a CoNiCrAlY bond coating and a 0.3 mm thick zirconia,(7%
