3.00 Credits
Introduction to the conserved-quantities: momentum, heat, and mass transfer, and application of chemical kinetics to elementary reactor-design. Examples from materials processing and process metallurgy. Molecular transport properties: viscosity, thermal conductivity, and mass diffusivity of materials encountered during processing operations. Uni-directional transport: problem formulation based on the required balance of the conserved- quantity applied to a control-volume. Prediction of velocity, temperature and concentration profiles. Equations of change: continuity, motion, and energy. Transport with two independent variables (unsteady-state behavior). Interphase transport: dimensionless correlations friction factor, heat, and mass transfer coefficients. Elementary concepts of radiation heat-transfer. Flow behavior in packed beds. Design equations for: Continuous- Flow/ Batch Reactors with Uniform Dispersion and Plug Flow Reactors. Digital computer methods for the design of metallurgical systems. Laboratory sessions devoted to: Tutorials/ Demonstrations to facilitate the understanding of concepts related to selected topics; and, Projects with the primary focus on the operating principles and use of modern electronicinstrumentation for measurements on lab-scale systems in conjunction with correlation and prediction strategies for analysis of results. Prerequisites: MATH225, MTGN334 and MTGN352. 2 hours lecture, 3 hours lab; 3 semester hours.

Introduction to the structure and properties of polymeric materials, their deformation and failure mechanisms, and the design and fabrication of polymeric end items. Molecular and crystallographic structures of polymers will be developed and related to the elastic, viscoelastic, yield and fracture properties of polymeric solids and reinforced polymer composites. Emphasis on forming and joining techniques for end-item fabrication including: extrusion, injection molding, reaction injection molding, thermoforming, and blow molding. The design of end-items in relation to: materials selection, manufacturing engineering, properties, and applications. Prerequisite: Consent of Instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.

Introduction to plasticity. Survey and analysis of working operations of forging, extrusion, rolling, wire drawing and sheet-metal forming. Metallurgical structure evolution during working. Prerequisites: EGGN320 and MTGN348 or EGGN350. 2 hours lecture; 3 hours lab, 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
Mechanical properties of ceramics and ceramic-based composites; brittle fracture of solids; toughening mechanisms in composites; fatigue, high temperature mechanical behavior, including fracture, creep deformation. Prerequisites: MTGN445, MTGN412 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours. (Spring.)
-
3.00 Credits
Application of fundamental materials-engineering principles to the design of systems for extraction and synthesis, and to the selection of materials. Systems covered range from those used for metallurgical processing to those used for processing of emergent materials. Microstructural design, characterization and properties evaluation provide the basis for linking synthesis to applications. Selection criteria tied to specific requirements such as corrosion resistance, wear and abrasion resistance, high temperature service, cryogenic service, vacuum systems, automotive systems, electronic and optical systems, high strength/weight ratios, recycling, economics and safety issues. Materials investigated include mature and emergent metallic, ceramic and composite systems used in the manufacturing and fabrication industries. Student-team designactivities including oral- and written-reports. Prerequisite: MTGN351, MTGN352, MTGN445 and MTGN461 or Consent of Instructor. 1 hour lecture, 6 hours lab; 3 semester hours.
