  • Methods to reduce the thermal conductivity of EB-PVD TBCs. 
    Nicholls, John R.; Lawson, K. J.; Johnstone, A.; Rickerby, David S. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2002-03-01)
    This paper reviews the advantages and disadvantages of various thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems, with the aim of custom designing a TBC system to be both strain tolerant and have a low thermal conductivity. Methods ...
  • A new spallation mechanism of thermal barrier coatings and a generalized mechanical model 
    Yuan, Bo; Harvey, Christopher M.; Thomson, Rachel C.; Critchlow, Gary W.; Rickerby, David S.; Wang, Simon (Elsevier, 2019-08-16)
    Multilayer thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems typically consist of three layers of materials: A thermal barrier top coat (TC), a thermally-grown oxide (TGO), and a bond coat (BC) in addition to the substrate. Local ...
  • Spontaneous formation and morphology of telephone cord blisters in thin films: the Ω formulae 
    Yuan, Bo; Harvey, Christopher M.; Thomson, Rachel C.; Critchlow, Gary W.; Rickerby, David S.; Wang, Simon (Elsevier, 2019-06-01)
    Telephone cord blisters (TCBs) are frequently observed in film/substrate material systems. They nucleate and propagate forward with wavy boundaries between the film and the substrate. The current study views the problem ...
  • Swelling-induced telephone cord blisters in hydrogel films 
    Yuan, Bo; Harvey, Christopher M.; Shen, Ke; Thomson, Rachel; Critchlow, Gary; Rickerby, David S.; Yu, Suyuan; Wang, Simon (Elsevier, 2021-11-08)
    Polymeric hydrogels can undergo dramatic shape and volumetric change when immersed into an appropriate solvent due to swelling or shrinking. Experimental studies have observed a variety of instability patterns in hydrogels. ...
