The proceedings of the Twenty-First University Conference on
Ceramic Science held at The Pennsylvania State University,
University Park, PA on July 17, 18 and 19, 1985 are compiled in
this volume "Tailoring Multiphase and Composite Ceramics." This
Conference emphasized the' discussion and analysis of the
properties of multiphase ceramic materials in which the
microstructure is deliberately tailored for specific applications
or properties. Inter nationally recognized authorities presented
keynote and invited lectures on topics dealing with processing and
fabrication of multiphase and com posite electroceramics, fiber
reinforced composites and high temperature multiphase ceramics.
Results of recent research were presented in oral and poster
sessions by leading researchers from several countries. This
collection of papers represents the state of the art in our
understand ing of the processing-structure-property
interrelationships for these materials which possess unique and
useful electrical, magnetic, optical, mechanical and thermal
properties as a result of their multiphase nature. We are grateful
for the financial support of the National Science Foundation, the
Office of Naval Research, the Air Force Office of Scien tific
Research, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency for
this conference. We gratefully acknowledge Prof. Robert Davis'
leader ship role in steering and expanding this university
conference series on ceramic science. We thank Ron Avillion and
Linda Rose for their expert assistance in planning and coordinating
the meeting. Thanks are due to Ms. Marian Reed, Ms. Judy Bell and
Ms."
This volume "Deformation of Ceramic Materials II" constitutes the
proceedings of an international symposium held at The Pennsyl vania
State University, University Park, PA on July 20, 21, and 22, 1983.
It includes studies of semiconductors and minerals which are
closely related to ceramic materials. The initial conference on
this topic was held in 1974 at Penn State and the proceedings were
published in the volume entitled "Deformation of Ceramic
Materials." This conference emphasized the deformation behavior of
crystals and po1ycrysta11ine and polyphase ceramics with
internationally recognized authorities as keynote lecturers on the
major subtopics. Several papers dealing with cavity nucleation and
creep crack growth represent a major new research thrust in
ceramics since the first conference. This collection of papers
represents the state-of-the art of our understanding of the plastic
deformation behavior of ceramics and the crystals of which they are
composed. We are grateful for the suggestions of our International
Advisory Committee .in recommending experts in their respective
countries to participate. We are particularly grateful that the
organizers of the previous Dislocation-Point Defect Interaction
Workshops agreed to participate in the Penn State Symposium as an
alternative at the suggestion of Prof. A. H. Heuer. We acknowledge
the financial support of the National Science Foundation for this
conference."
