Metallurgical and Materials Engineering

Course Objective

The aim of this course is to introduce students to the classification of ferrous and non-ferrous metallic materials, their standard representation and general properties, to introduce the structure-property-process-performance relationships, and to gain the ability to select the appropriate metal alloy for a specific requirement.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   be able to define the classes and standard representations of metallic materials,
2   be able to compare specifications of metallic materials in related classes and other metallic alloys
3   be able to described applications of metallic alloys and properties required to be met,
4   be able to distinguish the strengthening mechanisms and their interactions and the effects on other properties in metallic materials,
5   be able to explain relationships between structures, properties and processing in nonferrous alloys,
6   be able to choose an appropriate metallic alloy for a particular engineering design and application,
