Engineering Ceramics: Multifunctional Properties

Edited by: P. Sajgalík and Z. Lencés

Online since: October 1999

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This work represents a new approach to ceramics research. The mechanical properties of ceramics and ceramic-based composites are well understood and have been studied extensively in the past. This more profound understanding of physical properties, such as particularly low or high thermal conductivities, radiation penetration depth, electrical and magnetic responses etc., can now lead to the development of new materials having improved properties.
