Description:... This special-topic collection is intended to showcase the very latest knowhow concerning the design, fabrication and reliability of layered ceramics, ceramic coatings and functionality graded ceramics. It presents an overview of the fundamentals involved in this area, as well as an insight into the critical isssues and future perspectives touching these materials. The 30 contributions cover the pivotal topics of the: design and processing of multilayers; functionally graded materials; structural integrity of multilayers; thermal barrier coatings: processing and lifetime assessment; fatigue, damping and high-temperature behaviour of coatings and multilayers. Truly essential reading.
