Ceramics surfaces for tribology and corrosion & ceramic joining science and technology: 12th International ceramics congress Part C - v. 64

The 21 peer-reviewed papers collected here together offer a plenitude of up-to-date information on "e;Ceramics Surfaces for Tribology and Corrosion & Ceramic Joining Science and Technology"e;.

The papers are conveniently arranged into the CORROSION AND TRIBOLOGY OF CERAMIC SURFACES, Corrosion, Wear, CERAMIC JOINING.This special volume has also been published online in the series, "e;Advances in Science and Technology"e; Vol. 64 via www.scientific.net.Two of the 12 international symposia at the Congress are recorded here: Progress in the Understanding and Control of Ceramics Surfaces for Tribology and Corrosion, and Ceramic Joining.

The 21 papers discuss the influence of hydrofluoric acid concentration and pH on corrosion in porous multi-oxide engineering ceramics, the performance of blended cement concrete against seawater attack, advanced methods for evaluating residual stress in bioceramic wear surfaces, ultra-rapid transient-liquid-phase bonding of advanced ceramics, temperature modeling for friction welding between ceramic and metal, residual stress measurement around the interface of copper bicrystals deformed by uniaxial extension, and other topics.
