Structural Ceramics
Explore microstructure-mechanical property relationships in ceramics; principles of fracture mechanics, and static and dynamic fracture; static and cyclic fatigue; high-temperature behavior; strengthening and toughening mechanisms in monolithic ceramics; and particulate and fibrous ceramic composites. Mechanical Engineering 386Q (Topic 13) and 386Q (Topic 23) may not both be counted.
