Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content

This paper gives students an opportunity to learn advanced materials science knowledge and principles underlying materials engineering. It focuses on the relationships between processing conditions and microstructures of materials and major materials processing technologies. Aspects covered in this course include: solidification processing, oxidation and corrosion, ceramic processing, metallic powder consolidation, and composite fabrication technology.
