This volume is a compilation of papers presented in the Mechanical Behavior and Performance of Ceramics \u0026 Composites symposium during the 34th International Conference \u0026 Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and Composites (ICACC) held January 24-29, 2010, in Daytona Beach, Florida. The Mechanical Behavior and Performance of Ceramics \u0026 Composites symposium was one of the largest symposia in terms of the number (\u003e100) of presentations at the ICACCâ10. This symposium covered wide ranging and cutting-edge topics on mechanical properties and reliability of ceramics and composites and their correlations to processing, microstructure, and environmental effects. Symposium topics included: â¢Â Ceramics and composites for engine applications â¢Â Design and life prediction methodologies â¢Â Environmental effects on mechanical properties â¢Â Mechanical behavior of porous ceramics â¢Â Ultra high temperature ceramics â¢Â Ternary compounds â¢Â Mechanics \u0026 characterization of nanomaterials and devices â¢Â Novel test methods and equipment â¢Â Processing - microstructure - mechanical properties correlations â¢Â Ceramics \u0026 composites joining and testing â¢Â NDE of ceramic components
