Ceramic Engineering and Science Proceedings ? Mechanical Properties and Performance of Engineering Ceramics and Composites V31 Issue 2 : John Wiley & Sons : 9780470594674 : 0470594675 : 22 Oct 2010 : This volume is a compilation of papers presented in the Mechanical Behavior and Performance of Ceramics & Composites symposium during the 34th International Conference & Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and Composites (ICACC) held January 24-29, 2010, in Daytona Beach, Florida. The Mechanical Behavior and Performance of Ceramics & Composites symposium was one of the largest symposia in terms of the number (>100) of presentations at the ICACC'10. This symposium covered wide ranging and cutting-edge topics on mechanical properties and reliability of ceramics and composites and their correlations to processing, microstructure, and environmental effects. Symposium topics included: Ceramics and composites for engine applications Design and life prediction methodologies Environmental effects o
