Ceramics are in many ways the most challenging of engineering materials. This book introduces readers to the hierarchy of structures in ceramic materials, especially to the relationship between structure, at its many levels, and physical properties.
Designed to provide students with the core understanding necessary to pursue the subject of ceramics as it now exists and to be prepared for any surprises likely to emerge. Key concepts are developed in a sequence which builds on firm foundations, using the material learned so that its significance is continuously reinforced. The nature of…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Ceramics are in many ways the most challenging of engineering materials. This book introduces readers to the hierarchy of structures in ceramic materials, especially to the relationship between structure, at its many levels, and physical properties.
Designed to provide students with the core understanding necessary to pursue the subject of ceramics as it now exists and to be prepared for any surprises likely to emerge. Key concepts are developed in a sequence which builds on firm foundations, using the material learned so that its significance is continuously reinforced. The nature of defects which intrudes upon the perfect geometry of ideal crystal structures, migration of matter and charge, chemical and phase equilibria are among the subjects discussed.
