Course detail
Introduction to Material Science and Engineering
FSI-BUM Acad. year: 2019/2020 Summer semester
The course is based on the knowledge acquired in the courses on physics, chemistry, physical chemistry and mathematics. It deals with an inner structure of materials, crystal structure of solid materials, crystal lattice and their characteristics. Also discussed is thermodynamics of materials, diffusion, equilibrium phase diagrams, phase transformations and their influence on the structure and material characteristics. The course addresses also the problem of deformation and fracture behaviour of materials, strengthening and softening gadgetry, structural characteristics, mechanical characteristics at static, impulsive and cyclical load. The basic mechanisms are then shown how they influence the behavior of some application groups of materials.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students will have an overview of physical and chemical operations, which to a large extent influence materials capabilities. The acquired knowledge is necessary for successful completion of the further course "Structure and Properties of Materials".
Prerequisites
Students are expected to have general knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry acquired at secondary school. They should have the basic knowledge of reaction of materials to general situations.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having attended 100% seminars with active participation and worked the presented topics. Excused absence has to be compensated for via working out an alternative assignment. The exam has a written and an oral part. The written part is composed of questions on main topics presented in the lectures. In the oral part of the exam a student answers additional and complementary questions.
Aims
The aim of the course is to familiarise students with inner structure, structure and physical principle of processes taking place in technological processing of materials. Students will be cognizant of the interactions among chemical composition, processing, structure and properties of materials necessary for manufacturing technology and construction use.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Missed lessons may be compensated for by the agreement with the teacher.
