Materials synthesis and fabrication processes certainly existed before the invention of mathematics and computers, and well before the combined use of mathematics and computers. The mathematical modelling described in this book is, at its root, a rather formal, structured way of thinking about materials synthesis and fabrication processes.

Its three main sections deal with fibers which are derived from the vapor phase such as single crystal silicon whiskers or carbon nanotubes, from the liquid phase such as advanced glass and single crystal oxide fibers, and from solid precursor fibers such as carbon and ceramic fibers.

A wide range of advanced materials are prepared by cryogenic processing methods (also called freeze-drying synthesis). This book focuses on the cryochemical technology of advanced inorganic materials, which has been the subject of the authors' research for many years.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the steps involved in the ceramic injection molding process. It provides the reader with a convenient and authoritative source of information and guidance on the use of materials, equipment and testing procedures to produce satisfactory ceramic products.
