PRINCIPLES OF MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING

Catalog description

This course covers major topics related to engineering design, manufacturing, and the properties of materials used in modern component construction. Students will learn to implement design methods required to efficiently use manufacturing methods such as machining, forming, and molding. students will conduct analysis of material used for practical application of manufacturing processes. Atomic structure, bonding, defects, phase equilibria, mechanical properties, electrical properties, and optical properties are key elements which students study in detail to provide a firm support for student assumptions during analysis.C-ID ENGR 140.
