A sintering model for plasma-sprayed zirconia TBCs. Part I: Free-standing coatings
A sintering model is presented for prediction of changes in the microstructure and dimensions of free-standing, plasma-sprayed (PS) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). It is based on the variational principle. It incorporates the main microstructural features of PS TBCs and simulates the effects of sur...
