Boatemaa, L. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)This work explores the possibility of using embedded micron-sized Ti particles to heal surface cracks in alumina and to unravel the evolution of the crack filling process in case of pure solid-state oxidation reactions. The oxidation kinetics of the Ti particles is studied and the results are applied in a simple model for crack-gap filling....journal article 2018
