Papers on the use of ceramic materials for engines are presented, covering topics such as processing techniques for powders and composites, the rheological aspects of processing, processing nitride and carbide systems, joining and coatings, the mechanical properties of various ceramics, thermal and mechanical behavior, creep and fatigue behavior, toughened materials, nondestructive evaluation, machining and wear, and engine components. Specific topics include the characterization of Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} powder for injection molding, zircon/zirconia structural ceramic materials for engine applications, SiC whiskers, part distortion for binder removal, undoped and low-doped Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} with whisker reinforcement, gas pressure combustion sintering of TiB2-based composites, ZrC-BN coating for the thermal protection of C-C composites, colloidal processing of Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} ceramics, the transient thermoelastic fracture analysis of ceramic-to-metal bonds, Ti-vapor-coated Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} braze joints, diesel engine combustion and the rupture strength of partially-stabilized zirconia, and thermal shock resistance characterization of cellular alumina ceramics. Other topics include determination of K(Ic) values, high temperature cavitation of HIP Si{sub 3}N{sub 4}, the creep behavior of yttria- and alumina-doped SiN, biaxial static fatigue of Si{sub 3}N{sub 4}, proton NMR as a characterization method for polymeric binders in Si{sub 3}N{sub 4}, and the use of Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} in gas engine applications.
