On a ferroelastic mechanism governing the toughness of metastable tetragonal-prime (t′) yttria-stabilized zirconia

This article investigates the toughness of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) with the tetragonal-prime (t′) structure. Such materials are used as durable thermal barriers in gas turbines. Their durability has been attributed to high toughness, relative to materials in the cubic phase field. Based on...
