Electronic engineers are no strangers to odd-sounding and difficult-to-pronounce methods and mater ial s . However, the words piezoelectric ceramics still trip up even the most experienced designers.

Mikey Gambino is combining cutting-edge technology with the ancient art of ceramics. Gambino is a fifth-year student from Mount Prospect, Ill., double majoring in industrial design and the ceramics ...

A computer scientist constructs a mold system that snugly houses a vessel he 3D printed while a physics major carefully pours plaster into her structure. Design, marketing, psychology and public ...

In the history of engineering ceramics applications, there have been many examples where imitated designs based on a metal’s performance have resulted in considerable failures of ceramic components.

In 1999, Murata Electronics first began to see industry acceptance of ceramic capacitors as substitutes for hard-to-get tantalum caps. Passive-component producers had adapted to the needs of their ...

Purdue researchers observed how ceramics formed under an electric field surprisingly change shape rather than break when compressed at high strain. Purdue researchers discovered that some ceramics’ ...
