Objectives of the Course
|
Understanding the properties and characteristics of the materials. Understanding the relationships between structure and physical properties. Understanding the behavior of engineering materials by emphasizing important relationships between internal structure and properties. Discuss general picture of material’s nature and mechanisms that act upon, modify and control their properties. Discuss basic science problems via different interesting projects.

Course Content
|
Modern science and technology is highly dependent on materials whose properties can be controlled to accommodate a wide range of applications. The multidisciplinary field of materials science and engineering outlines approaches to enhance the manipulation of existing materials and synthesis of new materials. Further, the study of materials science and engineering provides the basis for understanding material properties with respect to chemistry and atomic structure and specifically the ability to tailor chemistry and structure in order to bring about specific properties. The purpose of this course is to present to students the basic principles necessary to understand not only an engineering materials but also basic level of composites. Classification of materials, atomic structure, periodic table, molecular structure, bonding in solid materials, structure of crystalline solids, mechanical properties and failure of materials, hydrogen embrittlement, dynamic strain aging, phase diagrams, properties and use of metal alloys and composites will be covered during the semester.
