Mechanical Behavior of Matls

Catalog description

Mechanical Behavior of Materials (3-0) The underlying principles of elastic and plastic deformation of metals, ceramics, polymers, and composite materials will be developed. Topics include dislocation theory, slip, twinning, microstructures, high and low temperature deformation behavior (tensile properties, creep and fatigue) of crystal line and amorphous materials. Offered in alternate years.
