Interfacial toughness is an important factor to address thermal barrier coating's (TBC)
durability. In this paper, a promising method, based on interfacial indentation, is used to …

To determine the interfacial properties of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is imperative for
their durability evaluation and further improvements. In this work, a ceramic coating (topcoat) …

Two layered thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with different bond coat surface roughnesses
were produced by air plasma spraying. Isothermal oxidation test was carried out to evaluate …

This work investigates the failure mechanism of an air plasma spraying (APS) thermal
barrier coatings (TBCs) with various bond coat (BC) surface toughness under constant …

The objective of this paper is to understand the effect of thermally grown oxide (TGO) on the
multiple surface cracking behaviors in an air plasma sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coating …

Failure of air plasma sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with a double-layered
bond coat was investigated. The bond coat consists of a dense layer near the substrate side …

A modified four-point bending test was conducted on air-plasma sprayed (APS) thermal
barrier coatings (TBC) to investigate the impact of bond coat (BC) topography tortuosity on …

The delamination resistance in a plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coating (TBC) system was
evaluated by means of a modified four-point bending test. In this work, in order to study the …

The durability of atmospheric plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (APS TBCs) with a
double-layer bond coat was evaluated via isothermal cycling tests under 1120° C. The bond …

The durability of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is controlled by fracture near the interface
between the ceramic topcoat and the metallic bond coat, where a layer of thermally grown …
