Symposium 6

Engineering Ceramics and Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs): Processing, Design, Development, and Applications

Engineering Ceramics and Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) with excellent combination properties have a wide range of applications in the aerospace, automotive, energy generation and storage, environment, transportation, optical systems, and microelectronics industries. Novel composition or structural design of engineering ceramics and CMCs in the multi-scale range can offer advanced, extraordinary, or abnormal structural and functional properties to fulfill the demanding challenges of these materials in the marketplace competition. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a broader forum for scientists and engineers from around the world to present and discuss their recent advances and developments in the areas of processing, characterization, and applications of engineering ceramics and CMCs. This topic will focus on the fundamental issues and engineering application challenges to advance our understanding and the utilization of engineering ceramics and CMCs. Farsighted presentations that emphasize the prospects of applications in the fields of aerospace, automotive, energy generation and storage, environment, and optical systems are also welcome.
