“…In service, crack nucleation and propagation gradually occurs due to oxidation and mismatch stresses, which eventually results in delamination and spallation of coating [2,3] . Therefore, to study failure mechanisms of TBCs, a lot of techniques have been developed such as acoustic emission (AE) [4] , digital image correlation [5][6][7] , photoluminescence piezospectroscopy [8][9][10] , and indentation methods [6,11] . Among these methods, the AE technique is generally used to identify the evolution of internal and external damage prior to failure in structural and functional materials under loading.…”
