Abstract Air Plasma Sprayed (APS) Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) have been widely used in land-based gas engines
for enhancing the high temperature performance due to their outstanding thermal insulation and high
durability. Introducing the segment cracks into APS-TBCs to enhance its durability has been quite attractive
approaches nowadays. Qualitative conclusions have been drawn to explore the mechanisms on segment
crack formation in the past decades. This article acts as a quantitative study of segment crack formation and
crack density regulation mechanism in APS Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) TBCs with experimental
observations and analytical calculations. An in-situ stress… More >
