Characterisation of high temperature coatings by miniature specimen testing and inverse approaches

Coatings, e.g. thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), have been widely used for many high temperature engineering applications to protect the components from such severe operating environments. An improved understanding of the mechanical behaviour of the coatings is required for assessing the reliability...
