The aim of the course:
The course aims to provide the students with a general knowledge on basic principles of strenghtening, to teach them to understand the relationship between the grain size and strength of materials, to enable them to understand the crystal defects, dislocation theories, slip and slip systems in crystals and their effects on strengthening and to learn them to understand the strengthening methods such as solid solution strengthening, cold deformation, dispersion strengthening, ageing, quenching and other methods.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : Learn the basic principles of strenghtening and examine the strengthening methods according to these principles. 1,21
PO - 2 : Learn the crystal defects, dislocation theories, slip and slip systems in crystals and will know the relationship with strength of materials.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,121
PO - 3 : Understand the effects of grain size on strength.1,21
PO - 4 : Learn the strengthening methods such as solid solution strengthening, cold deformation, dispersion strengthening, ageing, quenching and other methods1,21
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
