ENGIN 241B
Introduction to Structural Materials II
This class builds upon the 241A “Introduction to Structural Materials 1” class and expands towards diffusion, phase diagrams, phase transformation, solidification, and alloy systems. Examples include steels, aluminum and titanium alloys. Furthermore, composite materials and ceramics are featured for high performance applications.
Topics
- The main goal of this course is to build upon the 241A “Introduction to Structural Materials I” class and expand towards diffusion, phase diagrams, phase transformation, solidification, and alloy systems.
- The main goal of the course is to build upon 241A “Introduction to Structural Materials I” toward an understanding of how processing leads to structure and how to characterize the microstructures. Students will understand how defects affect properties. Also, students will gain an understanding of the criteria by which a working professional would select materials for specific applications.
