3. Preparation and characterisation of refractory whiskers and selected alumina composites
Abstract : A whisker is a common name of single crystalline inorganic fibre of small dimensions, typically 0.5-1 μm in diameter and 20-50 μm in length. Whiskers are mainly used as reinforcement of ceramics. This work describes the synthesis and characterisation of new whisker types. READ MORE

4. Tin whiskers: experiments and modelling
Abstract : Tin whiskers are hair-like single crystals that spontaneously grow from tin-coated surfaces. Whiskers are commonly found in electronic components, where tin coatings are used in, e.g., soldering applications, and to protect components from corrosion. READ MORE

5. Deformation and Fracture of Ceramics and Ceramic Composites
Abstract : An understanding of the deformation and fracture behaviour of ceramic materials is of considerable importance in the development of ceramics as reliable structural materials. Of particular interest is how such behaviour is influenced by the microstructure, for example in multiphase materials such as composites. READ MORE
