Course Synopsis
The course is an introductory course on engineering materials which is divided into two main parts.
The first part includes the classifications of materials that determine their applicability, the structure of the materials explained by the quantum-mechanical principle that relates electrons to energies, bonding scheme of different materials, the structure of crystalline solids and introduction to imperfection in solids and diffusion mechanism. The first part also includes the introduction of phase diagram.
The second part covers the structures, behaviors and characteristics of materials including mechanical, thermal, optical and magnetic properties.
In general, this introductory materials science and engineering course deals with the different material types (i.e., metals, ceramics, polymers, composites), as well as the various kinds of properties exhibited by these materials (i.e., mechanical, electrical, magnetic, etc.) which intended to equip the students with necessary knowledge on material science and engineering
