Institution:
University of Surrey
Course Title:
Engineering Materials
Course Number:
ENG3164
Course Description:
A lecture and tutorial based module, which will build on an earlier module to provide a deeper understanding and broader appreciation of materials for engineering applications, with an emphasis on deployment in challenging environments requiring a combination of properties. The first part of the module will (i) examine the processing-microstructure-properties that underpin materials selection, performance and deployment, (ii) examine basic methods of materials selection.
The second part of the module examines specific engineering materials: technical ceramics, polymers, elastomers, steels, aluminium alloys, titanium alloys and nickel-based alloys. Throughout the second part of the module specific applications are explored. These include aerospace, automotive, gas turbine and biomedical applications. A two-hour case study provides a concluding showcase of the role of engineering materials and the application of the major materials classes. This case study is currently undersea oil extraction.
