Shevchuk, V. A.; Silberschmidt, V. V. Semi-analytical analysis of thermally induced damage in thin ceramic coatings. (English) Zbl 1119.74540 Int. J. Solids Struct. 42, No. 16-17, 4738-4757 (2005). Summary: An efficient procedure to analyze damage evolution in brittle coatings under influence of thermal loads is suggested. The approach is based on a general computational scheme to determine damage evolution parameters, which incorporates an analytical solution of the appropriate interim boundary-value thermoelasticity problem. For thin inhomogeneous coatings, the simplification in the analysis is achieved by application of the mathematical model with generalized boundary conditions of thermomechanical conjugation of the substrate with environment via the coating. Efficiency of the suggested approach is illustrated by an example of damage evolution in the alumina coating on the titanium-alloy and tungsten substrates under uniform heating.
