Mechanical Properties of Materials: From Nanodevices to Superstructures

Course information provided by the 2018-2019 Catalog.

This course examines the mechanical properties of materials (e.g., strength, stiffness, toughness, ductility) and their physical origins. Explores the relationship of the elastic, plastic, and fracture behavior to microscopic structure in metals, ceramics, polymers, and composite materials. Discusses effects of time and temperature on materials properties. Emphasizes considerations for design and optimal performance of materials and engineered objects.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: PHYS 1112.
