Fabrication of Heat-Resistant and Plastic-Formable Silicon Nitride
In this book, improvements in the heat resistance of silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramics using grain boundary control and in plasticity at high temperatures using grain size control in order to reduce the cost of shaping Si3N4 are described. The heat resistance of Si3N4 is improved by mixing a slight amount of sintering additive as an impurity into the original material powder. The author …

Safety and Reliability for Science and Technology
Safety and reliability are two important aspects of science and technology. They are highly related, and they complement each other, i.e. they provide each other with more information than could be obtained individually. When safety and reliability are performed in collaboration, better and more efficient products can be produced. In this module, we focus on one important aspect of safety, i.e.…

Foundations of Educational Technology
According to Seels and Richey (1994), the educational technology field emerged, and continues to develop, through interactions of influences, including foundational research and theory and the features and capabilities of current technologies. This means the field of educational technology is “a child not only of theoretical knowledge, but also of practical knowledge” (p. 68). Theory from …
