Basics of Materials Engineering
NPTEL is offering online course for undergraduate students in Basics of Materials Engineering.
About the course:
- The objective of this course is to introduce the basic concepts of materials science and failure theories for design to undergraduate mechanical engineering students.
- The course is a first level course and hence various concepts such as structure of crystalline materials, defects and their implications to mechanical behavior, the processing of materials through phase diagrams, a detailed discussion on iron-iron carbide equilibrium diagram and heat treatment of steels will be introduced at the introductory level.
