Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
About 230 papers from an August 2009 conference review the latest advances in the science and technology of high performance ceramics. The papers are not grouped into sections. Some specific topics include oxide fiber-reinforced composites for gas turbine applications, the porous microstructure of yakbone bioceramic, properties and microstructure of CNT/AlN ceramics, and the effect of microstructure on the removal mechanisms of solid state sintered silicon carbide in polishing procedures. Other topics are estimating energy dissipation of ceramics via H-E ration, thermal shock behavior of Nd-doped a-sialon ceramics, and liquid oxide flow during oxidation of zirconium diboride-silicon carbide ultra-high-temperature ceramics. B&w images are included. The editors are affiliated with Tsinghua University, China
