    Abstract: Protective coating systems for gas turbine engine applications and methods for fabricating such protective coating systems are provided. An exemplary protective coating system includes a substrate formed of a ceramic matrix composite material, a first coating layer formed directly on to the substrate and comprising an oxygen barrier material, a compliance material, or a bonding material and a second coating layer formed directly on to the first coating layer and comprising a thermal barrier material. The exemplary protective coating optionally includes a third coating layer partially formed directly on to the second coating layer and partially formed within at least some of the plurality of pores of the second coating layer.

    Abstract: A method includes forming an article from a silicon-rich refractory mixture. The silicon-rich refractory mixture includes a silicon-rich silicon carbide preceramic polymer and a silicon carbide powder. The method includes heating the preform to pyrolyze the silicon-rich silicon carbide preceramic polymer and form a silicon-rich refractory material. The silicon-rich refractory material includes the silicon carbide powder and excess silicon in a silicon carbide matrix. The method further includes heating the silicon-rich refractory material to oxidize at least a portion of the excess silicon and form a reinforced refractory material. The reinforced refractory material includes a silicon dioxide phase at grain boundaries of the silicon carbide powder.

    Abstract: An assembly includes a first tube defining a first smooth, planar surface at an end of the first tube. The assembly includes a second tube defining a second smooth, planar surface at an end of the second tube. The assembly includes a force mechanism configured to apply a force to at least one of the first tube or the second tube to maintain contact between the first surface and the second surface. The first surface and the second surface are configured to interface to form a substantially hermetic seal when the assembly is cycled through a temperature cycle. The force is substantially normal to the first and second surfaces.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a first component comprising a carbon composite substrate. A high temperature coating is disposed on the surface of the carbon composite substrate. The high temperature coating includes a bond layer of a metal carbide on the surface of the substrate. The apparatus includes a second component, and braze material joining the surface of the first component to the second component. In some examples, a brake assembly may include a rotor having a surface configured to interface with another component of the brake assembly. The brake assembly includes an insert joined to the surface of the rotor without a mechanical fastener, and the insert defines a tough mechanical contact surface configured to protect the rotor.
