Synopsis:

Requirements:

To participate in the course, basic knowledge in the field of material science based on material science I and II is assumed:

History and present state of materials engineering, overview of technical materials, internal structure of metals, crystal lattices and their defects, deformation, recrystallization and fracture of materials, structure and properties of materials and their testing, fundamentals of thermodynamics, phases and phase transformations, iron-carbon phase diagram.

Fundamentals of metallurgy, iron-carbon alloys and influence of other elements, phase transformations, thermal, combined chemical and thermal and thermo-mechanical processing, technical iron-carbon alloys, non-ferrous metals and their alloys, plastics, structural ceramics, composites, selection of materials.

The exercises that are part of this course are compulsory. Absence from exercises must be properly excused
