Mechanical properties of multilayer coatings TiAlN

Abstract This study aims to examine multilayer TiAlN coatings. The mechanical properties of the coatings were obtained based on micromechanics methods and finite element modeling of a representative volume of a layered medium in ANSYS. Our findings are in line with the data on coating nanoindentation. Besides, we have succeeded in finding the dependence of the mechanical properties of multilayer coatings on various Al/Ti ratios.
