Finite element modelling of ceramics and glass - A bibliography (1977-1998)

This paper gives a bibliographical review of the finite Element methods (FE Ms) applied to the analysis of ceramics and glass materials. The bibliograp hy at the end of the paper contains references to papers, conference procee dings and theses/dissertations on the subject that were published between 1 977-1998 The following topics are included: ceramics - material and mechani cal properties in general, ceramic coatings and joining problems, ceramic c omposites ferrites, piezoceramics, ceramic tools and machining, material pr ocessing simulations, fracture mechanics and damage, applications of cerami c/composites in engineering; glass - material and mechanical properties in general, glass fiber composites, material processing simulations, fracture mechanics and damage, and applications of glasses in engineering.
