Videos

The American Ceramic Society provides an ever-growing number of videos in three general categories:


Technical videos are usually 3-5 minute videos that first appear on our blog, Ceramic Tech Today, and cover new research, applications and policy related matters.


Lecture videos are recordings of talks made by leading researchers, academicians and business people. Some of these lectures are done as part of ACerS annual awards lecture series or ACerS-sponsored scientific meetings. Others are provided by outside sources who have given us permission to share them on this site. The content of these lectures varies and includes detailed presentations of research, surveys of broad subject matter and panel discussions.


Interview videos are produced by ACerS to document the depth and breadth of the work and knowledge of ACerS members.  The subjects students, young professionals, industry representatives and luminaries in the field ceramics and materials science.

ABB Kreusel on battery recycling “What happens to electric vehicle batteries when they wear out?” Used battery packs won’t be sent straight away to the recycler. In this video, Jochen Kreusel, head of ABB’s Smart Grid Program, explains the potential importance of second-life batteries to grid systems and ABB’s testing of these uses in prototype distributed power grid set ups.

 

 

 

UAB group demonstrates techniques to electrospin improved 3D tissue engineering scaffolds
March 7, 2012

UAB electrospinning A group of investigators the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s School of Engineering have come up with an ingenious method of using electrospinning to build a superior three-dimensional scaffold of nanofibers that, it is hoped, will provide a boost to tissue engineering.
