This volume focuses on recent developments and advances of ceramics and ceramic matrix composites for use in fission and fusion reactors, nuclear fuels and alternative energy applications. With the continued increasing demands for energy, nuclear energy has experienced a renewed interest. Recent developments associated with advanced fuel cycles have resulted in new research efforts on nuclear fuel materials. The effects of radiation on the properties of ceramics and ceramic matrix composites are also addressed.Wereszczak, Andrew is the author of 'Ceramics in Nuclear And Alternative Energy Applications, Ceramic Engineering And Science Proceedings, Cocoa Beach, Issue 5 ' with ISBN 9780470080559 and ISBN 0470080558.
