- Synopsis:
-
Basic principles of metal physics, acquired in preceding courses, are extended to the applications in the field of processing and thermo mechanical treatment of different structural materials. Furthermore, an introduction to degradation processes as radiation damage, oxidation and corrosion is given.
- Requirements:
-
The course requires prior completion of courses of Metal Physics 1 and 2.
- Syllabus of lectures:
-
1. Mechanical properties of solid solutions.
2. Diffusion controlled transformations (nucleation and growth, spinodal decomposition).
3. Diffusionless transformations.
4. Deformation at elevated temperatures, creep, superplasticity.
5. Aluminium alloys: designation, hardening, processing.
