Microstructure-Property Correlations in Industrial Thermal Barrier Coatings

July 1, 2004
Author(s)
A Kulkarni, A N. Goland, H Herman, Andrew J. Allen, J Ilavsky, Gabrielle G. Long, C A. Johnson, J A. Ruud
This paper describes the results from multidisciplinary characterization/scattering techniques employed for the quantitative characterization of industrial thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems used in advanced gas turbines. While past requirements for

Phase Relationships in the BaO-Sm 2 O 3 -CuO x System Under 100Pa O 2

June 23, 2004
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Lawrence P. Cook, J Suh, James A. Kaduk
By applying controlled atmosphere methods to minimize the presence of carbonate, and CO 2 and H 2O contamination, subsolidus phase equilibria of the BaO-Sm 2O 3-CuOx system at pO 2 = 100 Pa (0.1 % O 2 by volume) were successfully determined. Under

Materials Design in the Performance of All-Ceramic Crowns

June 1, 2004
Author(s)
Brian R. Lawn, Antonia Pajares, Yu Zhang, Y N. Deng, M Polack, Isabel K. Lloyd, E D. Rekow, Victoria Thompson
Results from a systematic study of damage in material structures representing the basic elements of dental crowns are reported. Tests are made on model flat-layer specimens fabricated from various dental ceramic combinations bonded to dentin-like polymer

Wear Prediction of Ceramics

May 1, 2004
Author(s)
Stephen M. Hsu, M C. Shen
Advanced ceramics are increasingly being used for wear applications. The strength and fatigue resistance of ceramics have increased several fold in the last decade. Wear prediction of ceramics has become an important subject in these arenas. Ceramic wear

In-situ Studies of CO Oxidation on Pt(111): Evidence of a Self-Limiting Reaction at 140 K

April 29, 2004
Author(s)
D J. Burnett, A M. Gabelnick, A T. Capitano, Daniel A. Fischer, J L. Gland
In-situ oxidation experiments in oxygen pressures up to 1.3 Pa indicate that the 140 K carbon monoxide oxidation process is self-limiting. This experimental data suggests that adsorbed atomic oxygen may be responsible for limiting the extent of reaction

Solid-Liquid Equilibrium for Non-Hydrostatic Stress

April 1, 2004
Author(s)
R F. Sekerka, John W. Cahn
We examine Gibbs' conditions for equilibrium of a non-hydrostatically stressed single component solid in equilibrium across one of its faces with a pure liquid at pressure p(superscriptF). We show that the equilibrium melting temperature T(subscriptN) for

Fracture Mirrors in a Nanoscale 3Y-TZP

March 1, 2004
Author(s)
George D. Quinn, J Eichler, U Eisele, J Rodel
The strengths of fine microstructural scale yttria stabilized rectangular bars and circular disks were measured by four-point flexure and by flat ball (piston) on three ball methods. Fracture mirror sizes were measured and correlated to the strengths

Influence of Grain Size on the Tensile Creep Behavior of Ytterbium-Containing Silicon Nitride

March 1, 2004
Author(s)
Sheldon M. Wiederhorn, A R D Lopez, William E. Luecke, Michael J. Hoffmann, B Hockey, J French, D C. Yoon
The effect of grain size on the tensile creep of silicon nitride is investigated on two materials, one containing 5 % by volume Yb2O3, the other containing 5 % by volume Yb203 and 0.5 % by mass Al2O3. Annealing of the alumina-free silicon nitride increased

Propagation Behavior of Machining Cracks in Delayed Fracture

March 1, 2004
Author(s)
Yasumitsu Matsuo, L K. Ives
The propagation behavior (subcritical crack growth) of machining induced cracks in silicon nitride was investigated by conducting constant stress (CS) and constant stress rate (CSR) tests. A dye impregnation technique that forces a palladium nitrate

Studies of the Microstructure and Properties of Dense Ceramic Coatings Produced by High-Velocity Oxgen-Fuel Combustion Spraying

March 1, 2004
Author(s)
A Kulkarni, J Gutleber, S Sampath, A N. Goland, W B. Lindquist, H Herman, Andrew J. Allen, B A. Dowdy
High-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) spraying stands out among the various processes to improve metal and ceramic coating density and surface characteristics. This paper explores microstructure development, coating characterization and properties of HVOF

X-Ray Topography

February 4, 2004
Author(s)
David R. Black, Gabrielle G. Long
The study of the interrelationships between processing, structure and properties of materials is fundamental to the field of materials science and engineering. The need to understand the microstructure of materials has driven the development of a wide

Bayesian Inference of Nanoparticle-Broadened X-Ray Line Profiles

February 1, 2004
Author(s)
N G. Armstrong, W Kalceff, James Cline, John E. Bonevich
A single and self-contained method for determining the crystallite-size distribution and shape from experimental line profile data is presented. We have shown that the crystallite-size distribution can be determined without assuming a functional form for

Damage Modes in Dental Crown Multilayer Structures

February 1, 2004
Author(s)
Yu Zhang, Y N. Deng, Brian R. Lawn
The full potential of esthetic ceramic-based dental restorations has not yet been realized. Processing and surgical induced damage, exacerbated by fatigue damage during normal chewing, can reduce the initial strength of inherently brittle materials. The

Fundamental Parameters Line Profile Fitting in Laboratory Diffractometers

February 1, 2004
Author(s)
R W. Cheary, A A. Coelho, James Cline
The fundamental parameters approach to line profile fitting uses physically based models to generate the line profile shapes. Fundamental parameters profile fitting (FPPF) has been used to synthesize and fit data from both parallel beam and divergent beam
