Abstract
The nature of the dependence of the thermal shock resistance of ceramics on the various thermo-mechanical properties of these materials can be used to design, in a systematic way, ceramics with improved thermal shock resistance. Great versatility in designing for thermal shock resistance and other desired properties can be achieved via ceramic composite approaches where properties of the two (or more) phases can be used to tailor the properties of the composite.
