Course detail

Engineering Materials - Selected Topics

FSI-0SV Acad. year: 2018/2019 Winter semester

The subject – with great space for questions and in more or less discussion form – sorts and complements informations given in parallel subject 3SV – Structure and properties of materials. Talk will be about:
- fase transformations during the heat treatment of metals and alloys
- structural materials (metals,ceramics, polymers and composites) – their chemical composition and technological treatment in relation to their crystallographic, sub-structural, structural, and mechanical properties
- degradation processes resulting from the practical application of these materials
- principles of selecting materials for engineering constructions.
