For any given coating, n increases to some extent with increasing frequency.
Conversely, for a given bond coat, the performance becomes a function of the superalloy composition used in the application.
It is shown that for a given superalloy substrate, the coating performance is dependent upon the type of bond coat.
The last fact gives a possibility of tailoring the mechanical properties of a coating for a given application, e.g. to prepare coatings with high hardness H, high resistance to plastic deformation (∼H3/E*2), high elastic recovery We, but with low E* and high dmax.
The differing behaviours exhibited by duplex (Ti,Al N and Cr N coatings in different tribological tests reveal the importance of selecting the best coating for a given tribological application.
Numerical results show that for a given crack density, the graded Al2O3/Si3N4 coating exhibits higher critical thermal shocks than the homogeneous Al2O3 coating, and hence higher thermal fracture resistance.
The final geometries of the coated APT specimens were characterized with high-resolution scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, and an empirical model was proposed to determine the optimal coating thickness for a given specimen size.
The effect of composition, thickness and coating configuration for a given tank design and fuel solution concentration was evaluated on the basis of the multiplication factor (keff) calculated using the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) code.
The peptides obtained were conjugated to tetanus toxoid (TTd) to give experimental vaccines or to bovine serum albumin (BSA) to give coating antigens for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA ) [34].
These humoral immune responses target external viral coat proteins that are conserved for a given strain.
Results are presented which suggest definite correlations between critical load and indenter radius, and which should aid users in making the right choice of indenter for a given coating substrate system.
