Excerpt from Nuclear Science and Technology for Ceramists: Proceedings of a Symposium, April 7-12, 1966; Held Under the Auspices of the Ceramic Educational Council of the American Ceramic Society, With the Cooperation of the National Bureau of Standards, and Under the Sponsorship of the Office of Naval Research
Our rapidly advancing technology continually presents demands to the materials scientist and engineer to make present materials do new things or to devise new materials. To meet these ever expanding challenges, the ceramist must be able to bring to bear in his field the most advanced and sophisticated ideas and techniques available from other fields. To assist in this task, a series of Symposia was established through the joint efforts of the National Bureau of Standards, the American Ceramic Society, and the Office of Naval Research. Additional support for the first two in the series was also provided by the Edward Orton, Jr. Ceramic Foundation.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the interaction between radiation and solid matter, focusing particularly on ceramic materials. The author, a recognized expert in the field, provides a detailed examination of the physical effects induced by radiation in ceramics, with an emphasis on nuclear reactor applications. The book begins with a clear introduction to the principles of radiation damage, establishing the theoretical framework for the subsequent analysis. The author then delves into the various types of radiation encountered in reactor systems, including neutrons, gamma rays, and fission products, and discusses their effects on ceramic components. The text is well-supported by experimental data and case studies, which illustrate the practical implications of radiation damage in ceramic materials. The author also explores the impact of radiation on the mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of ceramics, providing valuable insights into how radiation exposure affects their performance. Overall, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding radiation damage in ceramics and its implications for nuclear reactor technology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
