The aim of this study is to investigate the failure mechanisms of coin-shaped plasma-
sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) for gas turbine blades due to cyclic thermal fatigue …

Plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are applied to protect the blades of a gas
turbine system from high-temperature gas and to lower the surface temperature of the …

The failure mechanisms of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems applied on gas turbine
blades and vanes are investigated using thermomechanical fatigue (TMF) tests and finite …

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 effect of the bond coat on residual adhesion strength after thermal cycle fatigue was
investigated in plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBC). This study used CoNiCrAlY …

The influence of a thermal cycle fatigue (TCF) loading waveform on cracking behaviors of an
atmospheric plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coating (TBC) system was numerically studied …

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are used in gas turbines to prolong the life of the underlying
substrates and to increase the efficiency of the turbines by enabling higher combustion …

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 …

Improvement in the performance of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is one of the key
objectives for further development of gas turbine applications. The material most commonly …

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 …
