| Abstract | |
The advanced ceramics for structural applications are present in engineering design parts subjected to complex solicitations. Such a unique combination of properties make these ceramics the one-way solution for materiais selection in specials cases. However a selection of material cannot be made independently of the choice of manufacturing process, shape and cost. The determination of a methodology for the evaluation of the sintered ceramic parts reliability is as important as the selection and processing techniques. This work presents the recent trends in the structural advanced ceramics application, the cold forming isostatic pressing and injection processes moulding, the elaboration of a methodology for evaluation the performance and the choice of forming processes related with the mechanical properties, microstructure and unlubricated sliding wear.
