Content of teaching

The course gives an overview of different heat treatments for steels to obtain defined microstructures such as martensite or pearlite and discusses their impact on the mechanical properties. Different thermally activated processes, such as diffusion, creep, recovery and recrystallization are introduced and analyzed and terms of their relevance for materials engineering. Heat treatments and thermally activated processes are also related to aluminium and copper alloys. The second part of the course covers structure, processing and applications of polymers, nonmetallic inorganic glasses and ceramics. Finally an overview is given of the most important materials testing methods.

Workload

regular attendance: 32 hours

self-study: 118 hours

Aim

Students know how to read binary phase diagrams and are able to explain the microstructural evolution of metallic and ceramic materials under equillibrium and non-equillibrium conditions. They know the most important alloys of iron-, aluminium-, and copper-based materials. Students are aware of the principle structures of polymers, non metallic inorganic glasses and ceramics and are able to derive differences in materials properties

Exam description

The assessment consists of a written examination (150 min) taking place in the recess period (according to Section 4(2), 1 of the examination regulation). The examination takes place every semester. Re-examinations are offered at every ordinary examination date. The examination at the end of the winter term is carried out by a written or oral exam.
