Multilayer, Multimaterial, Multifunctional, Thermo-structural Coatings

Abstract

In this report are reflected the activities performed in the collaborative project between researchers in USA (Stony Brook University) and their counterparts in Mexico (CIATEQ and CIDESI Research Centers). The US activity was sponsored by AFOSR while the Mexican activities were sponsored by CONACYT the Mexican research organization. The project sought to conduct fundamental scientific investigations on multilayer thermostructural coatings used in aerospace propulsion engines. Due sustained high temperature operation of aero engines in harsh environments, coatings undergo various failure modes from mechanical fracture to oxidation to sand induced erosion and delamination. Multilayers are sought to select and apply different types of materials that would mitigate location specific distress of coatings. This requires significant development of underlying fundamental science in multilayer mechanics for coating design, materials attribute and processing. The Stony Brook- Mexico team through complementary expertise aims to build a scientific foundation and tools for a continuous collaboration. The technical development of the project was guided by the activities reflected in the 3-year work schedule described in the project proposal where a balanced effort between modeling, coating preparation and testing were proposed. These activities have been performed with Thermal and Environmental barrier coating systems. In the section below are shown the completed activities and the outsourcing of the results obtained in the form of published papers, conferences, and awards.
