Develop essential engineering skills with expert instruction and practical examples.
Materials are an integral part of mechanical design and engineering. Understanding of properties , how they matter for product performance are a key knowledge set for any engineer designing products big or small. This course attempts to provide insights into the following topicsRole of material selection in Design processThe importance of materials Types of materialsThe Mechanical propertiesModulusDuctility and brittlenessStrengthHardnessResilience and ToughnessFracture toughnessFatigue strengthWearCreepInternal damping - loss coefficientThermal properties - Conductivity, Thermal expansion and heat capacity Introduction to peculiar nature of various base materials and compositesMaterial chartsMaterial selection processMaterial indicesDerivation of indices for various loading applicationApplying indices on the Ashby charts for material selectionThe course is intended to be a starting point for deep study into material selection.
Materials is of course a very vast subject. This course can be a good reference to get a taste for the field of material selection. If you are a design engineer and looking to refresh and maybe pickup on new concepts regarding materials this course will be for you.
If you are a student who is looking to start their learning journey in area of materials of mechanical design for product development then this should be a good starting point. Course is designed to be precise and to the point and focuses on concepts and not only the facts.
