Evaluation of molten sand, dust, and ash infiltrating thermal barrier coatings: Numerical and analytical approaches

Calcium-Magnesium-Alumino-Silicate (CMAS) is a category of atmospheric debris in the form of dirt, sand, and ash that damage thermal barrier coatings (TBC) in aircraft engines. The damage is not a direct result of erosion, but rather, CMAS melts in engines and impacts the TBCs. In this state, the CM...
