Book Description
Today the development of technical ceramics is mostly oriented towards a better control of the microstructure and resulting properties of these materials. New forms of powders and microstructures are developed to enable the usage of ceramics in new application areas. This goal may be reached by producing accurately reproducible reactive powders, development of adapted sintering processes, and by introducing new forms of composites. In addition, new methods offer new opportunities for materials development.

Euromat 99, Microstructures, Mechanical Properties and Processes
Author: Yves Bréchet
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9783527301225
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
The relation between microstructures and mechanical properties has always been a challenge for materials science. Modelling the formation, properties and long term stability of microstructures is one of the most impressive and promising advances of modern materials science. This book presents recent advances and challenges in this fast evolving cross disciplinary field. It addresses applications of classical physical metallurgy, and the need for new modelling approaches, both on the analytical viewpoint and on the simulation side.

Euromat 99, Surface Engineering
Author: Heinz Dimigen
Publisher: Wiley-VCH
ISBN: 9783527301966
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
Surface technology is a truly interdisciplinary topic in materials science. Nearly every component - no matter whether made of steel, metal, alloys, ceramics or plastic - is coated prior to its application. The integration of protective coatings into the design of complex components is becoming increasingly important and there is a great demand for novel coating processes, comprising surface modification and deposition. Modern coatings are being developed that can meet several functional requirements simultaneously, e.g., transparent and electrically conductive coatings for display applications. A special feature of this book is the section on laser surface treatment.

Ceramic Materials and Components for Engines
Author: Jürgen G. Heinrich
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 3527612777
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 678
Book Description
Several ceramic parts have already proven their suitability for serial application in automobile engines in very impressive ways, especially in Japan, the USA and in Germany. However, there is still a lack of economical quality assurance concepts. Recently, a new generation of ceramic components, for the use in energy, transportation and environment systems, has been developed. The efforts are more and more system oriented in this field. The only possibility to manage this complex issue in the future will be interdisciplinary cooperation. Chemists, physicists, material scientists, process engineers, mechanical engineers and engine manufacturers will have to cooperate in a more intensive way than ever before. The R&D activities are still concentrating on gas turbines and reciprocating engines, but also on brakes, bearings, fuel cells, batteries, filters, membranes, sensors and actuators as well as on shaping and cutting tools for low expense machining of ceramic components. This book summarizes the scientific papers of the 7th International Symposium "Ceramic Materials and Components for Engines". Some of the most fascinating new applications of ceramic meterials in energy, transportation and environment systems are presented. The proceedings shall lead to new ideas for interdisciplinary activities in the future.

High Performance Non-Oxide Ceramics I
Author: M. Jansen
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540456139
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The nitrides and carbides of boron and silicon are proving to be an excellent choice when selecting materials for the design of devices that are to be employed under particularly demanding environmental and thermal con- tions. The high degree of cross-linking, due to the preferred coordination numbers of the predominantly covalently bonded constituents equalling or exceeding three, lends these non-oxidic ceramics a high kinetic stability, and is regarded as the microscopic origin of their impressive thermal and mechanical durability. Thus it does not come as a surprise that the chemistry, the physical properties and the engineering of the corresponding binary, ternary, and even quaternary compounds have been the subject of intensive and sustained efforts in research and development. In the five reviews presented in the volumes 101 and 102 of "Structure and Bonding" an attempt has been made to cover both the essential and the most recent advances achieved in this particular field of materials research. The scope of the individual contributions is such as to address both graduate students, specializing in ceramic materials, and all scientists in academia or industry dealing with materials research and development. Each review provides, in its introductory part, the chemical, physical and, to some extent, historical background of the respective material, and then focuses on the most relevant and the most recent achievements.
