Abstract :
With the assistance of high-performance computing, the authors employ density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate atomic-level interactions at interfaces between ceramics and metals. They present their findings, based on DFT calculations, characterizing ideal interfaces related to those present in typical thermal barrier coatings
