Courses Detail Information

This course provides an introduction to materials processing, illustrating various means of obtaining the desired function from a raw material. The course will cover the classification of materials, the mechanical re-shaping of materials, the formation of mixtures, alloys, and composites, as well as advanced processing techniques. This will allow students to understand the connection between structure, processing, properties, and performance. It also provides knowledge of important processing criteria and their influence on structure, properties, and performance. The course ties into current technological challenges by enabling the students to analytically consider the required parameters and infer the most fitting raw materials and processing techniques.
