Abstract:

In this article, failure and fracture mechanisms in an aluminum alloy (which has been used in diesel internal combustion engines), with and without ceramic thermal barrier coatings, have been investigated under isothermal and non-isothermal fatigue loadings. In this research, the base material is an aluminum-silicon-magnesium alloy and the thermal barrier coating includes a metallic bond coat layer with 150 µm thickness and a top coat layer, made of zirconia stabilized 8%wt. yttria with 350 µm thickness, which is applied on the substrate by the plasma thermal spray method. In order to study the failure and the sensitivity analysis, isothermal fatigue tests (or low-cycle fatigue tests at constant temperatures) and non-isothermal fatigue tests (or out-of-phase thermo-mechanical fatigue tests) were performed on test specimens. Then, fracture mechanisms in the aluminum alloy, were investigated by the scanning electron microscopy. After checking the fatigue damage and the failure analysis, the sensitivity of the material lifetime was studied based on different parameters (the temperature and the strain). Based on obtained results, the fracture surface of the aluminum alloy had dimples and therefore, its fracture was ductile. In thermal barrier coating, the damage mechanism was the separation between the substrate and the bond coat layer. The highest sensitivity was related to the strain parameter in fatigue tests of the aluminum alloy (with and without coating).

Mechanisms governing the high temperature erosion of thermal barrier coatings

The impact of thermal barrier coatings by hard projectiles at high temperature has been analyzed. Three different domains have been explored: each differentiated by particle size, velocity, temperature and TBC composition. Domain I applies when the projectile creates deeply penetrating plastic/densification zones. In this case, short time elastic effects are relatively unimportant. The response...

AN INVESTIGATION ON EFFECT OF BOND COAT REPLACEMENT ON HOT CORROSION PROPERTIES OF THERMAL BARRIER COATINGS

In the present study NiCrAlY bond coating layer was produced by electroplating against common atmospheric plasma spraying (APS). Both types of the bond coats were applied on IN738LC base metal then, the YSZ (ZrO2-8% Y2O3) thermal barrier top layer was coated by atmospheric plasma spray technique. Hot corrosion is one of the main destructive factors in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) which come ...

Fatigue Failure and Damage Analysis of an Anti-roll Bar Subjected to Fatigue Experiments

The available fatigue theories have been examined using simple specimens subjected to bending or tension-compression loads. Therefore, the stress fields have been generally one or two dimensional. Anti-roll bar is a component belongs to the suspension system of the vehicles. In spite of having simple circular section, due to the having several curvatures, this component experiences a three-dime...
