COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course will provide the student with an understanding and working knowledge of metals as they are used today. The students will learn to appreciate the basic structure-property-processing relationships in metals and alloys. Starting with pure metals, we will examine the influence of: (i) deformation, (ii) temperature, and (iii) alloying on the structure and properties of metallic materials. We end with detailed discussions of Fe-C and other important alloy systems.
The student must be familiar with the Miller and Miller-Bravais Indices, crystal structure, bonding, and stereographic projections.
