This volume is part of the Ceramic Engineering and Science Proceeding (CESP) series. This series contains a collection of papers dealing with issues in both traditional ceramics (i.e., glass, whitewares, refractories, and porcelain enamel) and advanced ceramics. Topics covered in the area of advanced ceramic include bioceramics, nanomaterials, composites, solid oxide fuel cells, mechanical properties and structural design, advanced ceramic coatings, ceramic armor, porous ceramics, and more.

From the TMS 2003 Annual Meeting & Exhibition symposium honoring the life's work of Professor Akira Yazawa, this book, the first in a three-volume collection, discusses recent developments in the physical chemistry of metallurgical processes and physicochemical principles involved in materials processing, with a focus on materials processing fundamentals and new technologies. This volume is part of a three-volume set. You may purchase any volume individual or you may purchase the entire three-volume set in its entirety as listed below: Three-Volume Set : Metallurgical and Materials Processing Principles and Technologies (Yazawa International Symposium) Volume 1: Materials Processing Fundamentals and New Technologies Volume 2: High-Temperature Metal Production Volume 3: Aqueous and Electrochemical Processing A collection of papers from the 2003 TMS Annual Meeting and Exhibition, which was held in San Diego, California, March 2-6, 2003.
