The grinding and abrasive processing of materials are machining techniques which use bonded or loose abrasives to remove material from workpieces. Due to the well-known advantages of grinding and abrasive processes, advances in abrasive and grinding technology are always of great import in enhancing both productivity and component quality. In order to highlight the recent progress made in this field, the editor invited 21 world-wide contributions with the aim of gathering together all of the achievements of leading researchers into a single publication.

Concrete is, both practically and metaphorically, one of the major civil-engineering materials supporting modern society. But both concrete technology, and its structures, face daunting challenges arising from environmental erosion and other natural, and man-made, hazards.

Advanced high-temperature materials are key players in the emerging new technologies which are pushing forward the structural-aerospace, propulsion-system, defense, nuclear, thermal and chemical industries. Accelerating efforts have been directed towards increasing the operating-temperature limits of existing material systems and developing new material compositions such as advanced ceramics, UHTCs, intermetallics and CMCs. Understanding and controlling the behavior of the microstructures and properties of such materials have become key elements in these research activities. Since processing may itself engender various unique microstructural configurations and properties, the routes taken when obtaining optimum structures are also of primordial importance.

This book presents contributions covering the more recent applications of Sol-Gel science. Ceramics and films produced from gels were among the first applications developed by early sol-gel researchers. The possibility of tailoring the structure, and controlling particle growth, has permitted ever more advanced materials to be obtained. Several other potential applications were foreseen fifteen to twenty year ago, but their realization became possible only after extensive research on precursors had enabled progress towards the preparation of new pre-forms.
