A fundamental issue with micro-tubular solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is improvement of the mechanical strength of the cell. Fabricated using extrusion and co-firing techniques, the approximately 1.7 mm diameter SOFC tubes examined in this work are composed of a 50:50 NiO and Gd 0.2 Ce 0.8 O 2-x Gd-
