3.00 Credits
3 hours. A survey of the nature of the vitreous state with detailed consideration of structural and kinetic theories of glass formation. Composition-structure-property relationships are emphasized to illustrate how glass compositions can be designed to fulfill a particular set of product requirements. Processes for "post-forming" treatments which further tailor properties are also presented. Prerequisite: CEMS 235. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. A thorough discussion of the fundamentals of diffusion processes, which will be followed by discussion of ionic diffusion and ion exchange, gas diffusion, viscosity, ionic conductivity and dielectric relaxation, mechanical relaxation, chemical durability, and weathering in glasses, glass-ceramics, and melts. The effects of both atomistic structure and morphology will be discussed for each of these topics. Prerequisites: CEMS 235, 237 and 322. CE
-
2.00 Credits
2 hours. This laboratory prepares students to fabricate and measure the properties of glass correlating composition and property relations, and observing trends. Optical property analysis is emphasized as are novel fabrication techniques such as sol-gel glass design for high-tech applications such as biomedical and photonics. Pre- or co-requisite CEMS 322. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. Topics include glass compositions, raw materials, glass melting, furnace operation, glass forming-container, sheet tubing and pressed ware. Glass product manufacture, glass-to-metal sealing, annealing and tempering, quality control, glass-ceramics, phase transformation, immiscibility, homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation, crystal growth, and industrial glass-ceramics processes. Prerequisite: CEMS 322. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. This course introduces the basic principles of transport phenomena (momentum, energy, and mass transport) used in the quantitative solution of engineering problems. Prerequisite: MATH 152. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. An introduction to the polymeric materials for engineering and industrial use that studies the fundamental classes, processing, properties, and uses of polymeric materials. In addition to the major polymers, specialty polymers for biological, electrical, and high-performance uses are discussed. Necessary organic nomenclature is covered. Prerequisite: CEMS 235 or CHEM 343. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. Introduction to the physical and mechanical properties of metals with an emphasis on relating structure to properties. Strength, toughness, ductility, dislocations, phase diagrams, alloying, phase transformations, strengthening mechanisms, heat treatment, and solidification in metal systems. Processing and properties of plain carbon steels. Overview of forming and joining methods. Prerequisites: CEMS 214/235/251 or MECH 241/244/320. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. An introduction to the thermal and mechanical behavior of materials, including ceramics, glasses, metals, and polymers. Properties considered include strength, elastic modulus, hardness, toughness, thermal stresses, heat capacity and enthalpy, thermal conductivity, and thermal expansion. Discussion includes the effects of atomic, crystallographic, and microstructural characteristics of materials. Prerequisites: CEMS 214, 235 and 237. CE
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours. Introduction to electronic and electrical properties of materials (metals, semiconductors, ceramics and polymers). Topics include band theory, semiconduction, ionic conductivity, polarization, dielectrics, optical absorption, and magnetism. Fundamental electronic properties of solids are stressed.
