| Description: | There is extensive interest in the development of new and improved composite materials. This is particularly true of composite systems based upon metallic and ceramic constituents. As the characteristics of the interface are of central importance, there is a great incentive for an improved understanding of the nature of interfaces between constituents in such composite systems and of the factors that affect their mechanical characteristics. In this volume, various aspects of the structure and mechanical behaviour of interfaces in composite systems are covered in a systematic manner. Papers on selected topics were invited from some 25 authors of international standing, and are grouped here under five headings; covering studies of interfacial structure, interfacial testing techniques, microstructural control, correlations with composite performance and the behaviour of layered systems. Some of the papers are overviews of recent work, while others describe detailed results on specialised topics. Altogether, they represent a timely and authoritative assessment of the state of the art of this very important field. |
