The role of materials performance in the energy and sustainability characteristics of engineering systems, including cost, lifetime, energy consumed or produced, recycling or disposal possibilities, and environmental load. Quantitative methods are used to evaluate the relationship between materials properties, the performance of engineering systems, and the resulting impacts on the environment. Class exercises and homework sets involve analytic and numeric models that are designed to capture the main features of the system. Prerequisites: student in engineering, chemistry, or chemical engineering.
