Microstructural Control of Colloidal-Based Ceramics by Directional Solidification Under Weak Magnetic Fields

TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of graded and aligned microstructures were formed by applying external static magnetic fields oriented radially, axially, and transversely with respect to the solidification direction of freezing slurries containing micro/nanoparticles of ZrO2 and Fe3O4.
Journal ArticleDOI

External Field Assisted Freeze Casting

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review studies that apply external fields to create porous ceramics with different microstructural patterns, gradients, and anisotropic alignments, and the resulting materials possess distinct gradient, core-shell, ring, helical, or long-range alignment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multidimensional mechanics: Performance mapping of natural biological systems using permutated radar charts.

TL;DR: This work develops a multidimensional visualization strategy using permutated radar charts (radial, multi-axis plots) to compare the relative performance distributions of mechanical systems on a single graphic across N ≥ 3 properties, and uses shape descriptors for quantitative comparisons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microstructural evolution of paramagnetic materials by magnetic freeze casting

TL;DR: In this article, external magnetic fields were applied during the process of directional solidification to control the microstructural patterning of ceramic scaffolds formed by freezing colloidal mixtures of magnetic and paramagnetic particles.

Fabrication and Mechanical Properties of Micro-Architectured 3D Scaffolds

Pooya Niksiar
TL;DR: The origin of interface instability is considered, as well as the causes and consequences, of freeze point depression, which is a major theme in this chapter.
