Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Selected peer-reviewed papers are presented here, 23 in all, from the XI Congress on Mechanical Properties of Solids 2008, held at the University of Cádiz. Three invited talks report on advances in superplasticity in ceramics, structural effects on the plastic behavior of highly porous glasses, and grain size strengthening in microcrystalline copper. Papers are grouped in sections on ceramics, composites and models, metals, and polymers. Topics include wear resistance of metal oxide sol-gel coatings deposited over ceramic glazes, a high-temperature mechanical spectrometer for internal friction measurements, sliding wear behavior of duplex stainless steel, and creep and stress relaxation of hybrid organic-inorganic aerogels.
