Understanding ceramic variability: An archaeometrical interpretation of the Classical and Hellenistic ceramics at Düzen Tepe and Sagalassos (Southwest Turkey) KU Leuven
Within the aim of contributing to the artisanal craft history at Sagalassos (SW-Turkey), an archaeometric programme including thin section analysis, ICP-MS and multivariate statistics was developed to define the variability on a provenance and/or technological scale of the Classical/Hellenistic ceramic assemblage of Sagalassos and Düzen Tepe. The obtained data were used to evaluate the extent and variation of local pottery production. ...
Beholding Troyan Ceramics: Essays on traditional ceramics & contemporary sculpture Universiteit Hasselt
Beholding Troyan Ceramics Essays on traditional ceramics & contemporary sculpture Abstract The object of the present research in the field of arts is about interpretation and re-integration of the traditional ceramics in the art of contemporary ceramic sculpture. Its subject and starting point is the tableware ceramics of Bulgaria, known as the Troyan ceramics. Through a combination of practical and theoretical work, the study aims to ...
Ceramic Capillary Suspensions: Novel Processing Route for Macroporous Ceramic Materials KU Leuven
We introduce a novel method to produce macroporous ceramics by capillary suspensions. Adding a small amount (~1 vol%) of an immiscible secondary phase to a low concentration (~20 vol%) suspension can increase the yield stress by several orders of magnitude. This drastic change in flow behavior is induced by the creation of a sample-spanning particle network in the suspension controlled by capillary forces. This strong network may persist even if ...

Waste heat recovery enhancement in the CO2 chemical absorption process by hydrophobic-hydrophilic composite ceramic membranes Universiteit Gent
A novel ceramic composite membrane configuration was proposed to improve the waste heat recovery perfor-mance from stripped gas in the CO2 chemical absorption process. Tubular hydrophobic and hydrophilic ceramic membranes were serially assembled to form a single composite membrane. The stripped gas and bypassed CO2- rich solvent flowed countercurrent on both sides of the composite membrane. The waste heat recovery perfor-mance from the stripped ...
Influence of the die filling parameters during the ceramic tile pressing process via Discrete Element Method (DEM) Universiteit Gent
Handling and transformation of solids are two procedures involved in many stages of the ceramic tile manufacturing process. At the moment, the most widely used ceramic tile forming method is uniaxial pressing of spray-dried powder with hydraulic presses. During pressing, the green porosity of the ceramic bodies is defined. The pressing methodology consists in filling die with ceramic powder and compacting it with an hydraulic press. ...
Development of ceramic production in the Kur River Basin (Fars, Iran) during the Neolithic : a compositional and technological approach using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy and thin section petrography Universiteit Gent
This study aims to characterize the Neolithic ceramics (Mushki, Bashi, and Jari wares) of the Kur River Basin and reconstruct the origin of the raw materials and manufacturing technology. Neolithic ceramics from 13 different sites have been studied with handheld X-ray fluorescence (hXRF) spectroscopy and thin section petrography. The geochemical signature of these ceramics was defined, and four compositional groups were determined. The variation ...
Comparison of ceramic and polytetrafluoroethene/quartz suction cups for sampling inorganic ions in soil solution Universiteit Gent
Because the widely used ceramic cups are reported to release, adsorb, and filter dissolved nutrients from soil solution samples, inert cups made of poly(tetrafluoroethene) (PTFE) are frequently proposed as a more reliable alternative. A ceramic and a PTFE/quartz cup were compared with each other in this laboratory study. The PTFE/quartz cup was the most suited for pH measurements. Because only the ceramic cup samples both ammonium and nitrate in ...
