More about this course

The focus of the course is on structural materials
The course covers three important parts of materials which students and practicing engineers should know
The course is hoping to address both theoretical and practical aspects of Materials Engineering
Crystallography and crystal defects ? It covers crystal systems, crystal structures, indexing of planes and directions, vacancies, dislocations, grain boundaries and microstructures
Phase diagram and heat treatment ? It covers, Gibbs phase rule, one component systems, binary phase diagrams, lever rule, invariant reactions, iron-carbon phase diagram and heat treatment
Mechanical properties ? Elastic and plastic deformation, engineering and true strain and stress, ultimate tensile strength, ductility, toughness, cold/hot working and strengthening mechanisms
