Davim P. Ceramic Matrix Composites. Materials,Manufacturing and Engineering 2016

Textbook in PDF format

Composite materials are engineered from two or more constituents with significantly altered physical or chemical properties within the finished structure. Due to their special mechanical and physical properties they have the potential to replace conventional materials. This book, written by experts from all over the world, presents fundamentals and recent advances on ceramic matrix composites.
Covering properties and performance of composites, microstructural characterization, design and manufacture of composites.
Mechanical behavior of ceramic matrix composite (CMCs) and lifetime prediction by acoustic emission
Advanced electroceramic composites: Property control through processing
Regulation and control of macro-micro structure for optimal performance in alumina self-lubricated composites
The measurement of mechanical properties of interfaces in ceramic composites
Carbonaceous nanomaterials for hybrid organic photovoltaic application
Advances in self-healing based on carbon nanomaterials for electrical circuits – A review
