Ancient Ceramic

What is the ancient ceramic? Is it really a ceramic? Some of the art has the lizards directly interacting and 'using' the surface of the material, what's up with that? Is there an use for salvaged or reclaimed ceramic?

Ancient ceramic is definitely a material with properties. It occupies space and possesses mass. It's... probably made out of particles, but lizards aren't actually sure. It's called a ceramic because it's neither organic or metallic, but that's where the similarities to pottery end.

Looking at it with the most powerful microscopes they have, all lizards can see is a single unbroken surface. Chromatography techniques aren't helpful, as nothing in the stuff can be burned or dissolved. Most other material analysis techniques fall flat or give nonsensical results.

Whatever the mechanisms behind it, the material properties of ancient ceramic are that it's superhard, heavy, and conducts flux exceptionally well. When in it's "natural state" as part of an ancient structure, ancient ceramic doesn't just conduct flux, but it consumes it as well. When it's cut off from sources of flux, it slowly "dies," losing it's exceptional strength and hardness. It eventually dissolves away like a sand castle in the sun, leaving fine dust or microscopic, sharp-edged fragments behind.

Salvaged ceramic is rarely used, because it takes constant, concerted effort to keep it alive, and it's too heavy for most applications anyways.

The dust it breaks down into is more useful. It increases the flux conductivity of whatever you mix it into. Lizards often make concrete with it, because the small, fine particles make a great aggregate. As a bonus, it increases the flux conductivity of whatever you're building. Watch out though-- you want to make sure you're building with the dust, and not the carcinogenic, razor-edged fragments that it can also leave behind.

Flux perception is one of lizards' most important senses, and because ancient ceramic is so conductive, laying your hand on it means you can sense a larger region around yourself. Lizards may also be searching for input or output nodes, or perhaps energizing a specific piece of ancient technology connected to the surface they're making contact with.

Exploring microstructures for high-performance materials

In just the first few months of 2024, the journal Nature has published two scientific papers co-authored by Kun Luo, an Iowa State University postdoctoral research associate in materials science and engineering. "My research aims to unravel the fundamental mechanisms governing the behavior of diverse materials," Ken Luo wrote in a brief biography, "paving the way for developing innovative and high-performance materials across various industries." Luo has a background in experimental science, studying superhard materials using techniques in high-pressure physics. He also has expertise in theoretical simulations using machine learning tools to discover the microstructures within materials. "Throughout my career, I recognized the importance of theoretical simulation in explaining the atomic mechanisms behind the macroscopic behaviors of materials," he said.

Craig- Dr. Fizz (@disgruntleddemon) vs. Null (@tiktaaliker)

93. Craig - Dr. Fizz (@disgruntleddemon)

He/him (but fine w any)

He's gay, a mad scientist, has a grave robbing husband, brought someone back to life, pays his assistants fairly, makes body modification potions, gave himself heterochromia, chill with murder but would give you free top surgery, is just a silly goofy guy,

Spikey fured white cat with green point markings + one blue eye and one pink eye

94. Null (@tiktaaliker)

any pronouns

Null was created after a novice magician ripped the soul of the exiled demiurge of destruction in two, and is technically one half of a god. they immediately spent several thousand years in a cave eating rocks before being unwillingly dragged into protagonist status while being hunted by what is effectively their twin. Was at one point turned into stone (but got better).  Just a funky lizard guy who is so so so special but would rather sit in the dark eating rocks all day. I love this weirdo so much it's unreal and I think it would be so so so funny if they won. Null has a terrible awful no good day every day and is being so brave about it. My wonderful lizard son (gender neutral)

A funky orange lizard with blue/teal accents with frills on their head/down their back. Has no eyes, but can "see" using photoreceptors located on their face + frills. Has only three fingers on each hand/foot and can climb up vertical walls with gecko-style pads. Teeth are based off a Dunkleosteous and made from a superhard material able to cut through both stone and metal (: Also has sort of plate-armor scales on their head + an odd shaped "horn" on their nose made from the same material as the teeth. Completely optimized for digging a hole through a mountain via eating rocks and/or dirt

Solving the strength-toughness dilemma in superhard ceramics with a chemically tuned solid solution approach

Materials with superior mechanical strengths are crucial to many areas of modern industries and the scientific enterprise by providing cutting and drilling tools, structural components, protective coatings, and abrasives that find wide applications. Solid solution strengthening is a well-established method to enhance hardness of metals by introducing solute atoms to create local distortions in the crystal lattice, which impedes dislocation motion and plastic deformation, leading to increased strength but reduced ductility and toughness. In sharp contrast, superhard materials with Vickers hardness HV > 40 GPa exhibit high strength but low toughness via a distinct mechanism dictated by brittle bond deformation, showcasing another prominent scenario of classic strength-toughness tradeoff dilemma. Solving this less-explored and poorly understood problem presents a formidable challenge that requires a viable strategy of tuning main load-bearing bonds in these strong but brittle materials to achieve concurrent enhancement of the peak stress and related strain range.

CBN (cubic boron nitride) is a superhard material synthesized by humans. Its hardness is second only to diamond and much higher than ordinary corundum and silicon carbide abrasives. Many people who come into contact with it for the first time will directly equate it with diamond. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Compared with diamond, CBN still has many advantages that diamond cannot match. First of all, CBN has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and good thermal stability. CBN can withstand high temperatures of 1250-1350 degrees Celsius, which is higher than diamond’s heat resistance of 800 degrees Celsius. When grinding and cutting ferrous materials, there will be no chip sticking phenomenon. It is the most ideal grinding wheel for grinding quenched steel, high-vanadium high-speed steel, aluminum high-speed steel and other metal materials that are sensitive to grinding temperature. Secondly, the chemical inertness of CBN grinding wheels is very strong. Cubic boron nitride does not easily react chemically with iron group elements, so it can replace diamond for various high-speed steels, tool steels, grinding steels, high-alloy hardened steels, and chromium steels. It is very suitable for grinding materials with high temperature, high hardness and low thermal conductivity, such as nickel alloy, powder metallurgy and high temperature alloy. Therefore, when processing the above-mentioned iron group element materials, the durability is 3-5 times higher than that of diamond grinding wheels. If conditions permit, CBN grinding wheels can be used instead of ordinary grinding wheels for grinding hard steel, especially for grinding high-speed tool steel. The cost is lower and the use is more cost-effective.
