The aim of the course:
To give the major mechanical property tests and their applications in metallic materials. To give the basic knowledge related to the mechanical properties of metallic materials. To give the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties. To provide choosing the best mechanical test method for industrial problems
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : learn common mechanical testing techniques which applied to the metallic materials1,2,3,41,6
PO - 2 : understand and discuss the main mechanical behaviors of the metallic materials1,2,3,41,6
PO - 3 : design and conduct an experiment, as well as to analyze and interpret data obtained1,2,3,41,6
PO - 4 : decide what kind of experimental methods they use for solving a problem related to the materials applications1,2,3,41,6
PO - 5 : present the results and outcomes of any experiments in front of an audience1,2,3,41,6
