Knowledge |
---|
Explain basic concepts and definitions in crystallography, materials science and testing and fractography. Clarify the processes which take place during heat treatment and deformation of material (diffusion, phase transformations, plastic deformation). Describe the procedure for and evaluation of basic mechanical, technological and non-destructive tests. Characterize key heat treatments of traditional engineering materials and their effects on the structure and properties. Classify and describe types of fracture and clarify and characterize various failure mechanisms. Characterize the properties and use of non-ferrous metals, ceramics, plastics and composites. |
