About the Repository

The Alfred University Research and Archive (AURA) repository collects, distributes and preserves research and scholarship created by faculty, staff and students as well as documents of historical or archival significance. By offering a central location for depositing these materials through a stable, well-managed and permanent platform, AURA provides the Alfred University campus with the opportunity to share research with colleagues throughout the world while also providing access to documents with enduring value. AURA is managed by the Alfred University Libraries; additionally users should be aware of the Terms of Use and Rights Statement.

  • A Study on the Consolidation of Sulfide-Based Infrared Optical Ceramics 
    Li, Yiyu (New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Inamori School of Engineering., 2018-12)
    Due to the favorable infrared transparency, zinc sulfide (ZnS) and calcium lanthanum sulfide (CaLa2S4) are both attractive sulfide-based candidates for infrared optical ceramics. In the current project, detailed studies ...
  • Moisture Expansion in Ceramics 
    Martin, Duncan (New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Inamori School of Engineering., 2019-05)
    It is widely accepted that ceramic bodies are unaffected by humidity. This study examines the moisture expansion behavior of four ceramic compositions fired to produce a range of porosities. Porisity and flux level were ...
  • Feasibility Study of a Rural Electric Microgrid with Biomass as a Distributed Energy Resource 
    Liboro, Carl A. (New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Inamori School of Engineering., 2019-02)
    The widespread introduction of renewable energy systems has changed the nature of the electrical power grid. Alfred University is exploring the use of biomass as a distributed energy resource (DER) for a microgrid. A ...
  • The Influence of Surface Roughness and Humidity on Glass-Glass and Glass-Steel Friction 
    Abbott, John S. (New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Inamori School of Engineering., 2019-02)
    Effects of environment, and surface roughness on the frictional behavior of aluminosilicate, borosilicate, and soda-lime glasses in contact with glass and 304 stainless steel substrates were tested. Glass and stainless ...
