Sommario/riassunto

Materials science is an interdisciplinary and integrated research field, concerning the relationship among microstructure, processing and property of materials. Although ceramics were anciently invented, modern ceramics are advancing rapidly, leading into new fields far beyond the conventional image of ceramics. The properties of materials, in particular ceramics, are strongly affected by processing, and thus a new processing can produce mew materials which can trigger significant development of society. The present book comprises 58 peer-reviewed scientific papers presented to the 5th Interna
