Blake Barnett's research focuses on how high-temperature protective coatings on gas turbine engine parts degrade when exposed to sand and dust particles carried in combustion airflow. This work examines the microstructure (fine-scale physical structure) and material changes of thermal barrier coatings and ceramics under these harsh, particle-laden, high-temperature conditions, with applications to improving durability of aircraft and turbine engine components.
