The aim of the course:
To teach basic knowledge of alloy design criteria, phase diagrams, kinetics of phase transformations, diffusion, nucleation and growth and zone theory of alloys
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : learn the alloy design criteria1,2,3,41
PO - 2 : learn the Hume-Rothery rules and evaluate the alloy structure1,2,3,41
PO - 3 : interpret phase diagrams and phase transformations1,2,3,41
PO - 4 : explain the alloy microstructure according to diffusion principles and nucleation and growth mechanisms1,2,3,41
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
