- Contents
- The course provides the basic skills needed for the selection of metallic
materials intended for different conditions of use. The main contents
concern: nature and properties of metallic materials, starting from the
crystallographic aspects, to the defects, to the relationships between
these and the macro-properties of the materials. Carbon steels, stainless
steels and the main Al alloys are described in detail. - Reference texts
- Teaching material including lecture slides, texts and solutions to the
proposed exercises, tables, videos and more is available through the
Unistudium platform. - Educational objectives
- The teaching contributes to train the student on the methodological-
operational aspects of engineering sciences in general and mechanical
engineering in particular; It provides: 1. knowledge of the properties of
metallic materials 2. ability to choose the process based on the
properties of the material. - Prerequisites
- In order to understand and apply most of the concepts in teaching,
preliminary knowledge of basic chemistry and physics is required. - Teaching methods
- The course is organized in classroom lectures during which the topics
covered in the course are addressed. All the teaching material used
during the course – e.g. lecture slides, exercises completed and
proposed, tables, videos and other content – is available through the
Unistudium platform. - Other information
- Further information is available through the Unistudium page of the
course. The teacher is available for consultations at the end of each
lesson; consultations with the teacher in person or through the Microsoft
Teams platform can also be arranged at other times. - Learning verification modality
- The exam consists of an oral test aimed at verifying knowledge of the
topics covered. - Extended program
