This is the first book to discuss the correlation between the performance of industrial processes and practice-relevant properties, such as strength and optical properties. Interdisciplinary in his approach, the author discusses both the science and technology, starting with glass past and present, its structure, and rheology. The sections on properties include mechanical strength and contact resistance, ageing, mechanics of glass processes, the production and control of residual stresses, high-tech producers and current research and development. Applications covered include glazing,…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This is the first book to discuss the correlation between the performance of industrial processes and practice-relevant properties, such as strength and optical properties. Interdisciplinary in his approach, the author discusses both the science and technology, starting with glass past and present, its structure, and rheology. The sections on properties include mechanical strength and contact resistance, ageing, mechanics of glass processes, the production and control of residual stresses, high-tech producers and current research and development. Applications covered include glazing, packaging, optical glass, glass fibers for reinforcement, and abrasive tools.
Autorenporträt
Professor Eric Le Bourhis obtained his PhD from Paris VII University, France 1994. He joined the Saint Gobain Research and Development (RD) team at Aubervilliers as an engineer applying contact mechanics to glass surfaces and to the coatings that are developed for glazing; he was also involved in solving industrial production problems. In 1998 he joined Poitiers University, where he has been a professor since 2002 pursuing the promotion of sol-gel hybrid coatings in close collaboration with industrial glass manufacturers. He has published over 70 papers in international journals and holds 3 patents.
