Predictive modelling and multiscale NDE methods in failure assessment of thermal barrier coatings
The use of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) allows advanced gas turbine engines to operate at a temperature higher than the incipient melt temperature of the superalloy from which the engine components are made, thereby enhancing the performance and efficiency of the engine. However, delamination cra...
