Parameter optimization by Taguchi Methods for finishing advanced ceramic balls using a novel eccentric lapping machine [PDF]
The final finishing process of advanced ceramic balls used in hybrid precision bearings constitutes two-thirds of the total manufacturing cost, and hence effective and economic finishing methods and processes are critical to their widespread application.

AbstractThe production of lithium-rich ceramic pebbles is crucial for future fusion reactors, as they are one of the most important components of the tritium-breeding blankets. In order to produce high-quality pebbles, a melt-based fabrication process KALOS (KArlsruhe Lithium OrthoSilicate) has been developed at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology ...

Rapid preparation of tritium breeder material Li2TiO3 pebbles by thermal plasma [PDF]
A route to obtain tritium breeder material Li2TiO3 pebbles in one step was investigated using a direct-current (DC) thermal plasma system. For this purpose, irregular and agglomerate powders were used as raw powders which were injected into DC thermal ...

Corrosion behavior of diverse sputtered coatings for the helium cooled pebbles bed (HCPB) breeder concept [PDF]
The present paper studies the corrosion behavior of several sputtered coatings (nanostructured W, SiC and Al2O3) under the working conditions expected for the helium cooled pebbles bed breeder concept to be used in future nuclear fusion reactors.
