Undergraduate MEMS 1172

Physical Metallurgy

(3 units)

Description: Concepts introduced in Materials Science I, energetics and materials processing are used to provide an understanding of the development of structure in metals and alloys, and the dependence of properties on structure. Specific topics include dislocations and slip phenomena; twinning; the nature of the cold-worked state; annealing-recovery, recrystallization, and grain growth; textures; grain boundaries and other interfaces; and strengthening mechanisms.
