Abstract:
The Kingdom of Navarre was a Christian kingdom located in the north of the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. Its location on the west of the isthmus between the Iberian Peninsula and the European continent allowed an exchange of cultural currents. The main pottery production centres were in Estella, Lumbier, Pamplona, Tafalla, and Tudela. Ceramic pastes from various mediaeval sites were analysed for both elemental and mineralogical composition determination. The results were evaluated using Principal Component Analysis and allowed us to identify each production centre. Each manufacturing centre showed a different and characteristic composition of raw materials. Ceramics from Tudela were Ca-, Mg-, Na-, and Sr-rich. Ceramics from Estella were richer in Al, K, and Ti. Ca, Sc, and Sr contents were higher in Tafalla ceramics. Lumbier ceramics stood out for being enriched in Si, Mn, Fe, and Zr. Pamplona ceramics showed intermediate values. The analysis of samples from other Navarrese locations allowed us to begin to define what the commercial ceramic network in the Kingdom of Navarre was like during the Middle Ages. Therefore, two aims were defined for this paper: to characterise the ceramic pastes for each of the producing centres and to know where the ceramics were exported to.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the knowledge regarding how user-centre design can be built in ceramic consumer products. The paper gives the general overview of ceramics, computer-aided design and its application in ceramic product development. It also illuminates on product emotion, its influence on consumers’ behaviour and how it can be integrated into new product conceptualization. Furthermore, the paper analysed the systematic approach in building user-centred design in new product and also reveals how CAD can be used to achieve a user-centred design. In order to test the viability of CAD in achieving user-centred design, a study was performed where a CAD-model of a multi-functional ceramic pot was created and a questionnaire with the image (CAD model) and eight emotions was given to participants so as to know their emotional responses toward the product. The result from the study reveals the viability of computer aided design as tool for building user-centred design in consumer ceramics’ product development.

Abstract:
Bandung is a city known for its various local wisdom and diverse cultures. Continuing to preserve the value of intergenerational traditions in the current of modernization. Among the various creative industries that Bandung has, there are communities that are trying to maintain the traditional pottery culture. The Kebon Jayanti ceramic centre is a center for pottery craftsmen in Bandung, which was inaugurated in 1960 by the Bandung City Government as a tourist spot for shopping for ornamental pottery. Its products have been marketed to all regions in Indonesia. Since its inception, the products of the Kebon Jayanti ceramic centre have continued to change in terms of form, function, and style due to changes in business owners. This condition is vulnerable to the identity of the producer which is difficult to identify. So that the brand from Kebon Jayanti ceramic centre is less well known, and also has an impact on its existence. The method used in this research is qualitative approach, revealing identity through the history, purpose, and role of craftsmen in the Kebon Jayanti pottery industry and then translated into a visual identity. This research produces a visual identity in the form of a logo that can be used to build the image of the Kebon Jayanti ceramic centre. The logo that has been designed is also applied to the media for supporting the brand image. Starting from stationery design, packaging, merchandise, and signage that can introduce, strengthen, and expand the reach of the Kebon Jayanti ceramic centre brand. Through this visual identity design, it is hoped that consumers can easily remember and identify the Kebon Jayanti as a ceramic center that has unique culture and is interesting to visit.

Abstract:
Riassunto Il contributo intende esaminare gli esemplari appartenenti alla forma ceramica del calice a pareti troncoconiche provenienti dall’insediamento preromano di San Basilio di Ariano nel Polesine (RO) e, in particolare, dalle recenti campagne di scavo condotte dall’Università di Padova (2019-2022). Lo studio di questa forma, ampiamente attestata in Etruria padana e presente all’interno del centro polesano in diverse classi ceramiche, permette di cogliere un interessante fenomeno di ibridazione fra produzioni differenti, esito dell’interazione fra le diverse componenti culturali che convivevano nel sito.    Abstract This paper aims at studying a few pieces of trunk-conical ceramic chalices found at the pre-Roman settlement of San Basilio di Ariano in the Polesine (RO), in particular those unearthed during recent excavation conducted by the University of Padua (2019-2022). This kind of chalices is widely attested in the Etruscan-Po Valley area and present in different ceramic classes within the Polesine centre. The results reveal an interesting phenomenon of hybridization between different productions as the outcome of the interaction between the diverse cultural components that coexisted at the site.

Abstract:
The settlement of Volna 12 was excavated in 2013– 2015, on the Taman Peninsula. The settlement is located on the south-western coast of the Taman Peninsula, 5.8 km north-west of the outskirts of the Volna village and 1.8 km north of Cape Panagia. The period of the settlement's existence falls on the late 17th (possibly the beginning of the 18th) – early 19th centuries. The settlement with an area of ​​31 hectares has been fully explored, so we have the opportunity to work with its materials in full. The previously unpublished ceramic material of the settlement - dishes and ceramic household items – is considered in the article by groups and categories. Particular attention is paid to non-glazed ceramics, which for a long time remained outside the interests of researchers. The article considers such categories of ceramic vessels as Aquarius, jugs, bowls, household vessels, braziers. The settlement did not exist for a very long period of time (about 100– 150 years), therefore, chronological differences in the ceramic material cannot be found. Obviously, it mainly comes from one or several centres of the South-Eastern Crimea, but the question of the centre of production of these vessels remains unresolved.

Abstract:
Bioactive ceramics such as β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) promote and enhance biological fixation. Ceramics with a porous interconnected structure are suited for facilitation of bony ingrowth. An interconnected pore system with pore diameters in excess of 100 µm is required for cell penetration, tissue ingrowth, vascularization and nutrient delivery to the centre of the regenerating tissue. Human osteoblasts were cultured on the surface of a ceramic. In an in-vivo study, β-TCP samples with a porous interconnected structure were implanted into the femur of sheep and then investigated 6 weeks after operation. Histological analysis was performed on the area surrounding the implant. An indentation test was performed to complete failure of the bone/ceramic compound. Linear load, peak load and stiffness were recorded. All cylinders were found to be biocompatible and osteoconductive. Bone was more abundant in the outer ring than in the rest of the cylinder. The ceramic/bone compound was of low mechanical grade.

Abstract:
This paper reports the thermo physical characteristics of Vitrified tile polishing waste materials. As such growing production of vitrified tiles in the country generate large volume of this waste obtained during processing, polishing and cutting of the vitrified tiles to the tune of nearly 10-15 tonnes per day from each plant. The characteristic features of these materials are being studied and investigated to develop suitable technology for finding its gainful use especially in the traditional ceramics. It is known that ceramic as such building materials industry could be a large raw materials consumer and being heterogeneous and thus could utilize this vast quantity as the raw materials. However, the main problem would be it's firing nature as it showed thermal deformation after a particular temperature. Interestingly, the production process of most of the traditional ceramics follows a similar pattern starting from the raw materials processing up to a level of firing. Hence, to suggest suitable utility in the traditional ceramics as raw materials, it was the prime requisite that these waste must be thoroughly studied w. r. t various thermo physical characteristics to make use in this sectors. Hence, the present paper interestingly gone up to various study such as raw materials nature, particle size distribution, chemistry, XRD and DTA study for understanding typical physico chemical properties, and finally thermal properties to make it suitable for use in traditional ceramic industries. The higher fineness of the waste materials indicates its usefulness without extra grinding. The chemistry of typical sludge shows contamination from abrasive particles, sorrel cement bonding materials etc. originated from the polishing wheel and needs special precaution while suggesting use in the ceramic sectors. The firing characteristics of the sludge materials produces a foamy and spongy shapes and this could be the main guiding parameters in selecting the end use of the waste materials w. r. t temperature. The present study only shows various characteristic features of this waste and focuses its important properties to be used as a raw material in large quantity in the ceramic industries.

Abstract:
The Centre for Fine Print Research at the University of the West of England has over five years experience in the 3D printing of ceramic materials. The first project undertaken was to investigate the use of 3D technologies for artists and resulted in the development of a patented ceramic body suitable for use in Z Corporation 3D printers. After bisque firing this material can be further processed using conventional glazing and decorating techniques. A follow on project has resulted in a modified ceramic body and the development of firing supports to enable thin section ceramic tableware to be produced for ceramic industry concept modelling and short run or one-off pieces for artists and designers. This paper will detail the progress of the research and will explain by using case studies and examples of collaboration with a leading UK pottery manufacturer, individual artists and designers how this novel technique can be utilised to form shapes and forms difficult or impossible to realise by conventional forming methods. The potential of how the ability to form ceramic objects with complex internal structures could be beneficial to more specialist ceramics industries will also be explored.

Abstract:
This article focuses on the eastern region of the Red River Delta, Vietnam, between the tenth and sixteenth centuries. This area was an important centre of economic and population growth in Đại Việt in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, and nurtured Đại Việt's sophisticated and renowned ceramics industry, hosted leading schools of Vietnamese Buddhism and bred a rising class of scholars and bureaucrats. The region's rapid rise as an economic and political centre was, however, also the key to its undoing. The sudden spike in population density, and the intensive logging carried out for ceramic production, and temple and ship building, overtaxed the area's natural resources. The burden on the local ecology was exacerbated by the Trần dynasty's dyke building project, which shifted the river's course. The ensuing environmental deterioration might have been one major reason for the Vietnamese forsaking the large-scale ceramic production in Chu Đậu, deserting their main port, Vân Đồn, and for the Chinese abandoning a historical maritime invasion route.

Abstract:
Konformen har tidigare under arkitekturhistorien ofta använts för att skapa rum enligt en cellulär logik. Projektet ämnar ompröva användandet av konformen för att organisera rum, i det här fallet applicerat på en konsthall i Solna, genom att gå utanför enbart ett repetitivt arrangemang av vertikala koniska moduler för att uppnå en variation av skalor och riktningar som spänner från stora horisontella koniska rum till mer intima småskaliga vertikala rumsbildningar. Rummen skapas genom en adderande process där koner genomskärs med varandra och med plana element som adderas i operationen. Detta tillåter på så sätt en samexistens av två olika rumsliga logiker vilket leder till en komplex och tillåtande arkitektur som kan svara mot behoven i programmet och som även lyfter fram och förstärker formen hos byggnaden. Projektet utforskar även möjligheterna med att använda konen i egenskap av att vara en enkelkrökt yta och dess betydelse för digital modellering, ritningar och konstruktion.<br>The cone in architecture has often been used to shape and generate space with a cellular structural logic. This project reconsiders the use of the cone for organizing space, in this case applied on an Art Centre in Solna, going beyond the mere repetitive logic of conic modules, to allow for a variety of scales and directions, ranging from large span horizontal conic spaces to more intimate smaller scaled vertical conic rooms. The spaces are created through an additive process of intersecting cones with planar elements added into the operation, thus allowing the coexistence of two spatial logics, leading towards a manifold and allowing architecture that can handle the requirements of the program and that reinforces the perception of the shape. The project also explores the possibilities of the cone as a single curved unfoldable surface and it’s implications on digital model making, drawing and physical construction.

Abstract:
Deux millénaires après l’arrivée des premiers colons néolithiques, le Centre-Ouest de la France voit l’émergence au Néolithique récent d’une « mosaïque » de groupes culturels, peu après 3700 avant J.-C. À l’exception de la culture saintongeaise peu-richardienne, réputée pour ses céramiques aux décorations singulières et parfois exubérantes, tous ces groupes produisent des céramiques de facture grossière et peu décorée, difficilement distinguables sur les seuls critères morpho-stylistiques. Or ce sont ces critères qui sont généralement employés pour la définition des cultures néolithiques. L’origine et la caractérisation précise de ces groupes du Néolithique récent sont donc couramment discutées, tout comme leur filiation avec la culture artenacienne qui les succède au Néolithique final.Afin de préciser ce cadre chrono-culturel et d’appréhender les filiations et interactions entre groupes du Néolithique récent et final (3700-2200 avant J.-C.), notre étude a analysé l’ensemble de la chaine opératoire de fabrication de leurs céramiques à partir de vingt-trois assemblages issus de sites domestiques (enceintes fossoyées) et funéraires répartis sur l’ensemble du Centre-Ouest, entre Loire et Dordogne. L’objectif de ce travail est de mettre en évidence des « manières de faire » transmisses au sein des groupes de producteurs, comme l’ont montré de multiples études ethnoarchéologiques. Huit traditions céramiques ont été mises en évidence et caractérisées par les méthodes de façonnage employées puis le matériau argileux et enfin les formes produites. Elles sont présentées successivement en illustrant chacune des macrotraces les plus caractéristiques par des macro-photos. Les distributions chronologiques et spatiales de chacune de ces traditions sont ensuite discutées afin de tester la validité du cadre chrono-culturel actuel. La mise en évidence de trois aires culturelles distinctes, dans la seconde moitié du Néolithique récent (Seuil du Poitou, Taizé et Peu-Richard), nous permet ensuite de discuter de leurs origines respectives et des interactions entre elles. On remarque l’émergence d’une culture dominante peu-richardienne, peut-être à la faveur du contrôle de l’exploitation du sel dans les marais poitevin et de Rochefort. Ses productions céramiques, parfois diffusées à longue distance, sont à l’origine de celles de la culture artenacienne dont l’aire d’influence dépasse largement les frontières du Centre-Ouest au Néolithique final (2900-2200 avant J.-C. environ)<br>Two millennia after the arrival of the first Neolithic settlers, a “mosaic” of cultural groups appeared in Central-West France in the Late Neolithic period, c. 3700 BC. Except for the famous Peu-Richard culture of Saintonge, known for its ceramic decorations which are sometimes exuberant, all the groups of this cultural mosaic produce coarse and sparsely decorated ceramics, which are now difficult to distinguish just on morpho-stylistic criteria. However, these morphological criteria are commonly used for the definition of the Neolithic cultures. The origin and precise characterization of these Late Neolithic groups, and also their affiliation with the Artenac culture of the Final Neolithic period, are commonly discussed.To clarify this chrono-cultural context and understand the affiliations and interactions between groups of the Late and Final Neolithic (c. 3700-2200 BC), our study analyzes all the “chaine opératoire” of pottery manufacture from twenty-three ceramic assemblages from domestic (causewayed enclosures) and funeral sites which are distributed throughout the Central-West France, between Loire and Dordogne rivers. The aim of this work is to highlight the “ways of doing” transmitted in potters groups, as shown by multiple ethnoarchaeological studies. Eight ceramic traditions, characterized by the shaping methods, the clay material and finally the forms produced, are all successively presented and the most characteristic features of each ones are illustrated by macro-photos.Therefore, the chronological and spatial distributions of these ceramic traditions are discussed in order to test the validity of the current chrono-cultural context. Three cultural areas are identified in the second half of the Late Neolithic (Seuil du Poitou, Taizé and Peu-Richard) which offer the possibility to discuss their respective origins and the interactions between these areas. The emergence of a dominant culture (Peu-Richard) is observed and his power is perhaps related to the control of the salt exploitation in the poitevin and Rochefort marshes. The Peu-Richard ceramic productions, sometimes found at long-distance, are the ancestors of those of the Artenac culture whose area of influence extends beyond the Central-West borders in the Late Neolithic (c. 2900-2200 BC)

En second lieu, différents aspects socio-économiques et culturels perceptibles par le biais des données céramologiques sont examinés. Cette approche multiple apporte ainsi un éclairage nouveau sur la société biturige pendant cette période charnière où la Gaule du centre est soumise aux contacts et à l'influence du monde méditerranéen<br>This research offers an overview of the Bituriges Cubi's ceramic during the two centuries before AD.

A dual objective is pursued through the establishment of a regional typology and the functional and technical analysis of ceramics material. On one hand, it is about comprehending the chronological dynamic of the bituriges grouped settlements, since the emergence of the opened urban area to the creation of oppida and their evolution to the Biturige's city integration to the Roman Empire. On the other hand, it broaches the different socio-economic and cultural aspects perceptible through ceramological data. Thus, this multi-faceted approach sheds a new light on the Biturige society during this transitional period where central Gaul is subject on contacts and influence of the Mediterranean world

Abstract:
La ceramica Serra d'Alto, contraddistinta da caratteristiche formali e tecnologiche omogenee e ricorrenti, si diffonde in Italia meridionale nel V millennio BC ed è abbondantemente documentata in Puglia centro-meridionale, ampio territorio che costituisce uno dei probabili centri di insorgenza di questa cultura materiale. La ricorrente presenza in contesti frequentati a scopi rituali e/o funerari ha indotto diversi studiosi a considerare le ceramiche Serra d'Alto quali beni di elevato pregio, forse destinati allo scambio, ipotesi tuttavia smentita da recenti progetti di caratterizzazione archeometrica. Indagini archeologiche condotte nel sud-est barese hanno, tuttavia, portato alla luce un insediamento che ha restituito evidenze che, legate ad una frequentazione di tipo domestico, sono inquadrabili nell'orizzonte di Serra d'Alto. Ciò ha indotto a porsi nuovi interrogativi sulla valenza di questi prodotti vascolari e ad avviare nuovi studi finalizzati ad analizzare la totalità dei materiali ceramici rinvenuti in contesti coevi, stratigraficamente documentati, ma di differente natura, ubicati nel distretto sub-geografico delle Murge. L'analisi degli impasti ceramici, tramite l'ausilio delle metodiche archeometriche, lo studio delle forme vascolari e dei motivi decorativi hanno permesso di caratterizzare meglio anche la produzione "domestica" e di ipotizzare gli ambiti sociali della produzione. Al contempo la contestualizzazione dei frammenti ceramici e la loro distribuzione nei depositi archeologici, tramite l'associazione dei prodotti vascolari a determinate strutture e/o ambienti, hanno reso possibile valutarne gli aspetti funzionali e/o simbolici ad essi sottesi.<br>Serra d'Alto ware, characterized by homogeneous and recurrent features, is widespread in southern Italy during the fifth millennium BC and it is well-documented especially in Central South Apulia, an area currently regarded as one of the likely original centers of this material culture. This ceramic class usually consists of fine depurated pottery (figulina) and is decorated with dark brown painted complex geometrical motifs and with plastic appendices serving as handles adornment. Its frequent occurrence in ritual and/or funerary contexts has led many scholars to assume that Serra d'Alto ware constituted a high value products class most probably intended for exchange, an assumption actually refuted thanks to the latest archaeometric characterization projects. However, archaeological investigations recently conducted in Bari’s southeastern area have identified an open-air neolithic settlement with domestic evidences assigned to Serra d'Alto horizon. This has led to raise new questions about the cultural value of this kind of ceramic products and to carry out new studies with the aim of examining all the ceramic materials discovered in contemporary contexts of different kinds, stratigraphically well-documented and located in the Murge area. The analysis of ceramic paste, by the use of archaeometric methods, and the study of vessel shapes and decorative motifs have allowed to better characterize the "domestic" production too and to postulate social fields of production. At the same time, the shards’ contextualization and their distribution within archaeological deposits, given the correlation between ceramic products and particular structures and/or spaces, have led to speculate about the functional and/or symbolic aspects underlying them.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter looks at Moorcroft’s training as a potter at the firm of E.J.D. Bodley where his father had worked as Artistic Director, and his education both at the innovative Burslem School of Art and at the National Art Training School (soon to be renamed the Royal College of Art). His appointment as a designer at James Macintyre &amp; Co., Ltd. put him in a firm at the very centre of enlightened art education in the Potteries, its Directors including the forward-looking M.P. Wm Woodall (who had served on the Royal Commission on Technical Instruction), the philanthropist Th. Hulme, and the gifted ceramic chemist, H. Watkin. It was a firm developing its production of electrical porcelain, but keen also to invest in the manufacture of high-quality art pottery. The firm’s Minutes reveal the great benefit it soon derived from Moorcroft’s appointment. After just four years, Moorcroft had acquired an international reputation as a ceramic artist, and his Florian ware was stocked by exclusive retailers the world over, bringing widespread commercial success. It was the ideal collaboration of manufacturer and designer, of commerce and art, very much in the spirit of the Arts and Crafts. The chapter also considers Moorcroft’s distinctive integration of ornament and form, a quality often singled out in early reviews and quite different from the ‘applied’ decoration of much contemporary pottery. No less distinctive was his technique of slip decoration, his unusually rich colours achieved by staining the unfired clay with metallic oxides, and his unique practice of signing every pot by hand.

Ceramics have been essential in the domestic sphere and their production has undergone in the preindustrial era technological and cultural changes whose importance is obvious. This paper is to show in a very concise way how the production of European glazed ceramics underwent three phases of intense transformation of useful knowledge related to its production, with a successive accumulation leading to increasingly efficient results and a higher level of productivity. Moreover, it can be safely stated that, without this accumulation, the great progress of the 19th century in this area would have been impossible.

Abstract:
AbstractThe application of ceramic foam filters is state of the art in the casting of aluminum melt. Despite their industrial use since the 1960s, the filtration mechanisms are not fully understood. The Collaborative Research Center 920 investigated the influence of the filter surface chemistry and wetting between filter and melt on the filtration efficiency. The investigated filter surfaces based on Al2O3, MgAl2O4, 3Al2O3·2SiO2and TiO2 showed differences in the filtration efficiency and the wetting behavior whereby a good correlation for inclusions smaller than 110 µm was found–the larger the contact angle the higher the filtration efficiency. The results raised the question whether the intrinsic contact angle or the different roughness of the materials caused the changes in the filtration efficiency. A filtration trial at the Hydro pilot filtration line revealed a strong influence of the filter surface roughness on the filtration efficiency. A filter coated with Nano-Al2O3, with a divergent intrinsic contact angle compared to be Al2O3 reference filter, showed no improvement of the filtration behavior indicating no influence of the intrinsic contact angle on the filtration.

Abstract:
This paper examines the import of ceramic mortaria from north‑western Syria to Nea Paphos during the Middle and Late Roman periods. It analyses archaeological data to shed light on this trade’s economic and cultural dynamics. Several fragments of ceramic mortaria, which are shallow grinding bowls, have come to light during excavations in Nea Paphos, an important administrative and commercial centre in south‑western Cyprus. By studying the pottery assemblages unearthed during the Paphos Agora Project excavations, this paper aims to provide insight into the nature and significance of the imports of this category of vessels. Drawing on archaeological evidence that highlights the role of mortaria in facilitating economic linkage and cultural exchange between the two regions, this paper proposes a new understanding of the extent of the circulation of mortaria to Nea Paphos from the Ras el Basit, a centre in north‑western Syria, one of the leading actor in the Eastern Mediterranean mortaria market during the Middle and Late Roman periods.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Obtaining dense ceramic coatings by thermal spraying still remains a challenge. Compared to metals, ceramics have a lower thermal conductivity and a larger melting enthalpy. These factors limit the heat transfer from the plasma to the particles and consequently do not necessarily allow their total melting. Problems linked to this heat transfer can be avoided, or at least limited, by using agglomerated particles made of a mixture of reactive powders yielding the ceramic material, via SHS (Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis) reaction. In this case, the reaction can be ignited by the heat transfer at the particle surface of an agglomerate and propagate towards the centre during its flight through the plasma. The application of this process to Ti, C mixtures leads to the formation of a dense TiC based coating. The composition of the coating, influenced by the contamination of the surrounding gas entrainment during the spray process, belongs to the TiC-TiO solid solution. The influence of experimental parameters on the coating composition is discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract History and current state of the German technology of Liquid Fed Ceramic Melter (LFCM) for High Level Liquid Waste (HLLW) vitrification are described. The development of the technology started at Karlsruhe Research Centre (now Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, KIT) in 1976. The LFCM technique was first time applied with radioactive waste by the PAMELA plant in Mol/Belgium (1985–1991), followed by the VEK plant (Verglasungseinrichtung Karlsruhe) 2009–2010 at the former German pilot reprocessing plant WAK (Wiederaufarbeitungsanlage Karlsruhe), and was used in the Vitrification Plant China (VPC) in Guangyuan/Sichuan Province (2020–2023). The hot operation of the PAMELA plant had primarily shown that flat-bottomed melter require significant design modifications when noble metals containing HLLW (Ru, Rh, and Pd) has to be processed. Otherwise, these constituents disturb the glass pool heating as well as the glass pouring operation and diminish the throughput capacity of the melter. This and some other experienced problems during the otherwise successful PAMELA operation have been overcome by advanced melter design used for VEK and VPC as well as for the future Chinese Diwopu plant melters.

Full text
Abstract:
More than ever, the development process in the field of automotive engineering requires shorter development cycles for a higher range of vehicles. In order to meet the ambitious goals of the automotive industry regarding CO2 reduction and at the same time increasing the vehicle requirements in view of comfort and dynamics, it is necessary to decrease the drivetrain weight. Parallel, research and development in the field of automotive engineering is e.g. characterized by power upgraded combustion engines and by higher transmission ratios in the drive train. As a result, the rising of the weight specific power should not involve a reduction of the drivetrain reliability and the related increase of the failure probability. These demands lead to the conclusion that lightweight and robust designs have to be applied for all drivetrain components. All these factors affect the dimensioning of today’s clutch systems and step up the demands for future clutch systems. Thus, organic friction facings are getting closer to their limits due to temperature resistance. Within the frame work of the Centre of Excellence in Research CER 483 “High performance sliding and friction systems based on advanced ceramics” one approach is to apply advanced ceramics as friction material for e.g. a dry running motor vehicle clutch using the ceramic specific benefits as wear and temperature resistance combined with lightweight design to fulfill today’s demands.

Full text
Abstract:
The continually increasing demand for miniaturisation in the fields of electronics, micro-system-technology, and microoptics leads to higher and higher requirements for micromachining tools. Lasers are ideal for micromachining of metals, ceramics, and polymers. UV radiation of excimer lasers and frequency-quadrupled Nd:YAG-lasers with short pulses of 10 ns to 150 ns, and intensities up to 109 W/cm2, allow machining with sub-micron structure size and minimal thermal influence. The high photon energy of UV laser radiation facilitates a direct photolythic interaction with some materials. Besides this, thermal and pyrolytic interaction mechanisms also appear. Regarding this, removal mechanisms of certain materials depending on laser properties are discussed. Handling-systems for micromachining are as important as the laser itself. The application of excimer laser radiation in a multiaxis CNC-micromachining unit with modular design is presented. Special features of this micromachining centre are the beam handling system with integrated flexible mask and energy control. The workpiece handling and all process parameters are controlled by a host computer with a user-friendly interface. The unit can be used to generate microstructures in micromechanical parts and ceramic and polymer surfaces with a resolution of 1 pm horizontally, and 0.1 μm vertically. In this way, it is possible to produce, e.g., microlenses in glass or polymers.

Abstract Producing nanostructured materials through metastable phases is an interesting novel route in the field of ceramic materials. Due to their small grain size and uniform structure, these nanostructured bulk materials exhibit very interesting properties. Metastable coatings can be produced starting from microstructured powders through atmospheric plasma spray (APS) technique, followed by a quenching route. The initial powders are melted during the spraying and deposited over a substrate that is quenched with liquid nitrogen (LIN) feeders, producing metastable coatings. The thermal sprayed coatings have been characterized using XRD, SEM, FESEM and EDS in the Thermal Spray Centre (CPT) of the University of Barcelona. The properties of such coatings have been also studied obtaining promising results.

Under the U.S. Department Of Energy/National Aeronautics and Space Administration (DOE/NASA) funded Ceramic Turbine Engine Demonstration Program, AlliedSignal Engines is addressing the remaining critical concerns slowing the commercialization of structural ceramics in gas turbine engines. These issues include demonstration of ceramic component reliability, readiness of ceramic suppliers to support ceramic production needs, and enhancement of ceramic design methodologies. The AlliedSignal/Garrett Model 331-200[CT] Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is being used as a ceramics test bed engine. For this program, the APU First-stage turbine blades and nozzles were redesigned using ceramic materials, employing the design methods developed during the earlier DOE/NASA funded Advanced Gas Turbine (AGT) and Advanced Turbine Technologies Application Project (ATTAP) programs. The present program includes ceramic component design, fabrication, and testing, including component bench tests and extended engine endurance testing and field testing. These activities will demonstrate commercial viability of the ceramic turbine application. In addition, manufacturing process scaleup for ceramic components to the minimum level for commercial viability will be demonstrated. Significant progress has been made during the past year. Engine testing evaluating performance with ceramic turbine nozzles has accumulated over 910 hours operation. Ceramic blade component tests were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of vibration dampers and high-temperature strain gages, and ceramic blade strength and impact resistance. Component design technologies produced impact-resistance design guidelines for inserted ceramic axial blades, and advanced the application of thin-film thermocouples and strain gages on ceramic components. Ceramic manufacturing scaleup activities were conducted by two ceramics vendors, Norton Advanced Ceramics (East Granby, CT) and AlliedSignal Ceramic Components (Torrance, CA). Following the decision of Norton Advanced Ceramics to leave the program, a subcontract was initiated with the Kyocera Industrial Ceramics Company Advanced Ceramics Technology Center (Vancouver, WA). The manufacturing scaleup program emphasizes improvement of process yields and increased production rates. Work summarized in this paper was funded by the U.S. Dept.

The fabrication processes for these components will provide the framework for a demonstration of manufacturing process scale-up to the minimum level for commercial viability. The laboratory engine testing is helping to refine the component designs and focus the development of ceramic component technologies. Extended engine endurance testing and field testing in commercial aircraft is planned to demonstrate ceramic component reliability. Significant progress has been made during 1994. An engine with ceramic turbine nozzles was successfully operated and engine tests in the laboratory are continuing to gather useful data. An engine equipped with ceramic blades was also tested, but blade fractures occurred, interrupting operation. An extensive investigation has identified possible vibration and contact problems. Investigative evaluation efforts are continuing to identify the problem source and determine go-forward plans for ceramic blade development. Component design technologies have progressed in the areas of modeling particle impact pulverization, development of a ceramic hot corrosion environmental life model, and methods for evaluating ceramic contact damage.

Abstract:
The Portoscuso-type amphorae, identified for the first time in 1990 when the necropolis of San Giorgio was discovered, testify to a Phoenician presence in southwestern Sardinia starting from the eighth century B.C. This type of amphora is similar to the T-3.1.1.1. classification made by Ramon Torres and to the B2 described by Bartoloni. A new approach based on ceramic paste analysis through macrophotography will be necessary to better identify this pottery type and outline with more precision one of the commercial circuits in the Mediterranean during the eighth century BC.
