Abstract Nonhomcgeneous coatings ( NCs) are new type of engineering structures that is not yet fully understood.
One important aspect in the mechanical analysis of NCs is to determine the gradient distribution that creates the
maximum thermal stress relaxation. This paper employs numerical analysis using the finite element method and
experimental analysis using moi re interference to study the stress distribution i n NCs Attention focused on the edge
effect stresses in the coating/substrate structures and their dependence on the different gradent distributions of this
new kind of composite structure.
