A Review of the Erosion of Thermal Barrier Coatings. [PDF]
The application of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) to components with internal cooling in the hot gas stream of gas turbine engines has facilitated a steep increase in the turbine entry temperature and the associated increase in performance and ...

Effect of microstructure and temperature on the erosion rates and mechanisms of modified EB PVD TBCs [PDF]
Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have now been used in gas turbine engines for a number of decades and are now considered to be an accepted technology. As there is a constant drive to increase the turbine entry temperature, in order to increase engine ...

Solid particle erosion and viscoelastic properties of thermoplastic polyurethanes [PDF]
The wear resistance of several thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) having different chemical nature and micronscale arrangement of the hard and soft segments has been investigated by means of erosion and abrasion tests.

Rates of erosion and landscape change along the Blue Ridge escarpment, southern Appalachian Mountains, estimated from in situ cosmogenic 10Be [PDF]
The Blue Ridge escarpment, located within the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia and North Carolina, forms a distinct, steep boundary between the lower-elevation Piedmont and higher-elevation Blue Ridge physiographic provinces.

Effect of Nanosilica on Bending Strength and Thermal Stability of Glass Fiber/Phenolic Nanocomposite [PDF]
Glass fiber/phenolic composites are effectively used as heat shields for fabrication of cooled combustion chambers. To improve the performance of these composites as well as to lower their costs, the use of nanosized silicon dioxide (SiO2) particles has ...

The significance of velocity exponents in identifying erosion-corrosion mechanisms [PDF]
The modes of erosion-corrosion are diverse and may vary from being ''erosion-dominated'', where erosion of metal is the dominant process, to ''corrosion-dominated'', where erosion of oxide scale is the dominant process.
