Introduction -- Background -- Characteristics of TBCs -- Experimental Methods -- Modelling of Properties of TBCs -- Modelling of Interface Roughness in TBCs of Oxide Growth in TBCs -- Conclusions – How to Design TBCs?.
This book details the relationships between microstructure, interface roughness, and properties of thermal barrier coatings. The author proposes a method for the reduction of the thermal conductivity of the ceramic layer in order to increase the lifetime of thermal barrier coatings. He includes models for the optimization of ceramic layer microstructure and interface roughness.
