- ItemMechanisms of bonding effected by nanoparticles in zirconia coatings applied by spraying of suspensions(Saarbrücke : Leibniz-Institut für Neue Materialien, 2008) Adam, Jens; Aslan, Mesut; Drumm, Robert; Veith, MichaelZirconia coatings consisting of a mixture of coarse and fine grained zirconia powders prepared by spraying of suspensions and subsequent thermal treatment at limited temperatures (up to 500°C) are poor in adherence and in intrinsic mechanical strength. We have shown elsewhere that mechanical properties of these coatings can be improved clearly by adding a small amount of nanoscaled zirconia. Here, the structural and the chemical development of this coating material and of the nanoparticles is examined to gain information about the underlying bonding mechanisms. The applied temperature is relatively low in comparison to the usual onset temperature of accelerated sintering. Nevertheless, the results show that diffusion controlled material transport mechanisms play their role in bonding. The condensation of surface OH groups may participate in bonding, too. These first results confirm the potential of nanoparticles to act as inorganic binder. Additional research effort to clarify the underlying mechanisms in detail is of interest. For the practical side, it can be concluded that the resulting effect of mechanical consolidation of ceramic structures at relatively low temperatures enables new ceramic applications, for example a new type of ceramic coatings on metallic substrates.

- ItemAdaptive Numerical Methods for PDEs(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2007) Süli, Endre; Verfürth, RüdigerThis collection contains the extended abstracts of the talks given at the Oberwolfach Conference on “Adaptive Numerical Methods for PDEs”, June 10th - June 16th, 2007. These talks covered various aspects of a posteriori error estimation and mesh as well as model adaptation in solving partial differential equations. The topics ranged from the theoretical convergence analysis of self-adaptive methods, over the derivation of a posteriori error estimates for the finite element Galerkin discretization of various types of problems to the practical implementation and application of adaptive methods.
- ItemApplications of Asymptotic Analysis(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2006) Palencia, E. Sanchez; Sokolowski, Jan; Wagner, BarbaraThis workshop focused on asymptotic analysis and its fundamental role in the derivation and understanding of the nonlinear structure of mathematical models in various fields of applications, its impact on the development of new numerical methods and on other fields of applied mathematics such as shape optimization. This was complemented by a review as well as the presentation of some of the latest developments of singular perturbation methods.

- ItemArbeitsgemeinschaft: Percolation(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2007) van den Berg, Jacob; Camia, FedericoAbstract. Percolation as a mathematical theory is more than fifty years old. During its life, it has attracted the attention of both physicists and mathematicians. This is due in large part to the fact that it represents one of the simplest examples of a statistical mechanical model undergoing a phase transition, and that several interesting results can be obtained rigorously. In recent years the interest in percolation has spread even further, following the introduction by Oded Schramm of the Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) and a theorem by Stanislav Smirnov showing the conformal invariance of the continuum scaling limit of two-dimensional critical percolation. These results establish a new, powerful and mathematically rigorous, link between lattice-based statistical mechanical models and conformally invariant models in the plane, studied by physicists under the name of Conformal Field Theory (CFT). The Arbeitsgemeinschaft on percolation has attracted more than thirty participants, most of them young researchers, from several countries in Europe, North America, and Brazil. The main focus has been on recent developments, but several classical results have also been presented.
- ItemIncreased biocompatibility and bioactivity after energetic PVD surface treatments(Basel : MDPI, 2009) Mändl, S.Ion implantation, a common technology in semiconductor processing, has been applied to biomaterials since the 1960s. Using energetic ion bombardment, a general term which includes conventional ion implantation plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) and ion beam assisted thin film deposition, functionalization of surfaces is possible. By varying and adjusting the process parameters, several surface properties can be attuned simultaneously. Extensive research details improvements in the biocompatibility, mainly by reducing corrosion rates and increasing wear resistance after surface modification. Recently, enhanced bioactivity strongly correlated with the surface topography and less with the surface chemistry has been reported, with an increased roughness on the nanometer scale induced by self-organisation processes during ion bombardment leading to faster cellular adhesion processes. © 2009 by the authors;.
- ItemFinite Fields: Theory and Applications(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2004) Shparlinski, Igor E.; Stichtenoth, HenningFinite fields are the focal point of many interesting geometric, algorithmic and combinatorial problems. The workshop was devoted to progress on these questions, with an eye also on the important applications of finite field techniques in cryptography, error correcting codes, and random number generation.
