Synopsis

Explore advancements in an intriguing new ceramic composite - functionally gradient materials (FGMs). FGMs are composite materials that smoothly transition from one material at one surface to another material at the opposite surface. The papers cover the gamut of product development topics, from fundamental science and modeling to component design and application. Papers from the Third International Ceramic Science & Technology Congress, San Francisco, Ca., Nov. 1-4, 1992. Section 1: The Concept of FGM: Methods used to prepare FGMs are described Section 2: Mathmatical Modeling Section 3: Methods of Fabrication Section 4: Material Evaluation Section 5: Applications: Includes carbon/carbon composites for combusters Section 6: Joining Processes in FGMs: Use of transient liquids in FGM interlayers Section 7: Process Characterization: Data on FGMs' behaviour and performance Section 8: Design Considerations.
