Because of their particular structure, cellular ceramics display a wide variety of specific properties which make them indispensable for various engineering applications. An increasing number of patents, scientific literature and international conferences devoted to cellular materials testifies to a rapidly growing interest of the technical community in this topic. New applications for cellular ceramics are constantly beinCeramic materialsCeramic-matrix compositesCeramic materials.Ceramic-matrix composites.620.14Colombo Paolo1960-313281Scheffler Michael1969-1342234MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911018881603321Cellular ceramics3065517UNINA
