Finite element modeling of abradable materials – Identification of plastic parameters and issues on minimum hardness against coating's thickness

Abradable materials are used to decrease the gas consumption of aircraft engines by minimizing the gap between the blade tips and the stator. The key idea consists in using the blades themselves to machine the gap on the abradable coating. The best compromise between soft and hard coating proper...
