Offered By:
Engineering and Materials Science Faculty
Description
- Elements of macro and microstructure e.g. grain size and shape, phases type, size, shape and distribution
- Types of structure obtained by different processing techniques: cast structure, hot formed structure, cold formed structure, welded structure
- Relationship between the structure parameters and mechanical properties
- Effect of heat treatment on the structure and properties
- Typical alloy structures: cast irons, steels, non ferrous alloys
- Design and tailoring of microstructures for required properties
