  1. Functional Graded Materials architectures applied at nanoscale: thin PVD nanograded and layered coatings

    09 Oct 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Vasco Teixeira

    Functionally graded materials (FGM’s) are designed to achieve levels of performance superior to that of homogeneous materials by combining the desirable properties of each constituent phase. FGM’s are composite materials where the composition or the microstructure is locally varied so that a...
