Model-based calculations have been around since Newton formulated the falling of apples in a mathematical- physical equation with his Newton’s Law approach. Today, when we talk about model-based virtual optimization of Ceramic Injection Moulding (CIM), we mean the numerical solution of complex three-dimensional differential equations in DOE systems. The term Artificial Intelligence (AI) was first … Weiterlesen …
Ceramic waste from broken kiln furniture, crucibles and saggars of the technical ceramic industry accumulates each year in very large amounts. It contains highly valuable materials like silicon carbide (SiC) and alumina (Al2O3). A recycling of this materials is indispensable to reduce the raw material consumption and waste production, thus decreasing the environmental impact of … Weiterlesen …
Sintering transforms a shaped powder compact into a dense solid by applying high temperatures, typically >1000 °C. It is a vital step in the fabrication of ceramics, which dictates the microstructure, and hence, the final structural and functional properties of the sintered parts. However, the application of high temperatures poses several challenges for ceramic manufacturing … Weiterlesen …
