【Key Points of This Research】
We proposed a new method for analyzing the interfacial strength of thermally grown oxides and Ni-base superalloys by the combination of experimental method (nanoindentation) and numerical simulation (finite element analysis).
This is an advancement in assessing and understanding the adhesion of oxide layers formed by high temperature oxidation, which is also one of the key parameters necessary for predicting the high temperature properties of superalloys.
