1. Thermal Barrier Coatings : Durability Assessment and Life Prediction
Abstract : Thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems are coating systems containing a metallic bond coat and a ceramic top coat. TBCs are used in gas turbines for thermal insulation and oxidation resistance. READ MORE

2. Oxy-Fuel Combustion - The Control of Nitrogen Oxides
Abstract : Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the main candidates for carbon dioxide capture from power plants. In oxy-fuel combustion, oxygen diluted with recycled flue gas oxidizes the fuel. The elimination of air-borne nitrogen generates a flue gas that mainly consists of carbon dioxide and water. READ MORE

3. Electrical properties of thermal oxides on SiC manufactured in an alumina furnace
Abstract : A process to achieve high inversion channel mobility in 4H-SiC MOSFETs is needed to enable manufacturing of devices for high power applications. In this thesis, investigations on the electrical properties of oxides produced in an alumina furnace are presented. READ MORE

4. Use of localised techniques to elucidate the influence of process variables on the corrosion of stainless steels
Abstract : Several factors during steel manufacture and fabrication can alter the passivity and corrosion behaviour of stainless steels. These include alloying, deformation, welding and heat treatments. READ MORE

5. Use of local electrochemical techniques for corrosion studies of stainless steels
Abstract : The excellent corrosion resistance of stainless steels arises from the presence of a passive film on its surface. Above 10.5wt% Cr a chromium oxide of 1-3 nm is formed on the surface of the metal that in case of damage will reform and hinder further dissolution of the metal. READ MORE
