Section Title:
Modeling Elasticity
Section Info:
Predicting elastic behavior from atomic bonding in crystal, and microstructure in composites. Hands-on experience with popular microscopic computational materials science and engineering software through project-based learning in electronic structure calculation (Quantum Espresso) and finite element modeling (OOF2). Students will also develop proficiency in the command line interface and bash shell scripting. The course will prioritize the physical principles underlying the software to confer an understanding of their applicability and limitations, and hands-on immersive praxis to give students the confidence and expertise to independently use these tools.
Restriction(s):
Restricted to students in the Materials Science & Engineerng department.

Section Title:
Metals Processing
Section Info:
Experiments are performed on metal processing by heat treatment (steel), nonequilibrium methods (metallic glasses), and cold rolling (brass). The course emphasizes the learning of physical metallurgy of metal processing through experimentation, the proper use of instrumentation (metallography, mechanical testing, x-ray diffraction. and DSC), communication skills, and respect for the importance of safety.
