β¦ Synopsis
The initiation of surface cracks in thick ceramic thermal barrier coatings systems was studied by using controlled experiments and the corresponding analysis. The experimental boundary conditions consisted of a concentrated heat flux at the surface of the coating and water cooling at the bottom of the substrate. The results showed that tensile stresses were formed at the surface during cooling following stress relaxation during steady state heating. A parametric study showing that a low Young's modulus and a low coefficient of thermal expansion for the coating would reduce these tensile stresses and increase its durability.

Stress intensity factors are calculated at the deepest point and at the surface points of circumferential semielliptical surface cracks in a thermally shocked pipe. The method of calculation is based on weight functions following a proposal by Munz et al. Numerical values of the stress intensity fac
In order to avoid the formation of normal cracks in the external layer of multilayered ceramic coatings during cooling, determination of the residual thermal stress field is essential. Concerning the effect of the intermediate layers (transition zone) on a possible reduction of stress in the externa
