Abstract

Most conventional and experimental methods for the formation of ceramic objects involve the manipulation of small particles and/or structures comprised of these particles. Consequently, a better understanding of the physics and chemistry of small particles could contribute to the development of better ceramics. Here the results of some recent computer simulation studies of processes such as particle aggregation, deposition and segregation are surveyed. More realistic models are needed to represent accurately the behavior of most real systems.
