Nano and Micro indentation studies of bulk zirconia and EB PVD TBCs [PDF]
In order to model the erosion of a material it is necessary to know the material properties of both the impacting particles as well as the target. In the case of electron beam (EB) physical vapour deposited(PVD) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) the ...
