Key words
Chemistry, Metallurgy
Objectives
Starting from the study of metallic structures and eventual thermal treatment of metals and alloys, the students are expected to perceive the relations with the observed properties and practical applications of the various steeltypes, cast iron and the morst important non-ferro alloys.
Topics
The course handles about the structure of metals, statediagrams, metallographic research, the properties (in relation to the metallographic structures) and applications of the most important metals and alloys: steel, cast iron, copper and derived alloys, aluminium and derived alloys, lead and derived alloys, zinc, nickel, cobalt and derived alloys, super alloys.
Prerequisites
”Metallurgy I” , 3st year Bachelor in Industrial Sciences in Chemistry.
Final Objectives
General scientific competences [AWC1, AWC2, AWC3]
Ability to critical, creative and scientific thinking concerning metallographic structures.
Ability to applicate scientific insights on scientific problems concerning metallurgy.
Ability to communicate and report (verbal and/or in writing) about scientific and technical problems concerning metallurgy.
General technical competences [ATC ]
General competences [AC1]
Ability to discuss in team and solve adequately problems concerning metallurgy.
Specific competences [SC3]
Ability to perform chemical and metallurgical analysis and to applicate it in process and product control.
Materials used
Teacher’s course.
Study costs
About € 5.00
Study guidance
Possibility to consult the professor after ten lecture/exercise or by appointment.
Teaching Methods
Lectures with demonstrations and exercises.
Assessment
Theory (oral examination) : 80%
Exercises (permanent evaluation and test) : 20 %
A weighted average is used to compute the final score for a training item. However, if a student gains a score of 7 or less on 20 on one of the different courses (parts of training items), he proves that his skill for certain subcompetences is insufficient. Consequently, one can turn from the arithmetical calculation of the final assignment of quotas of a training item and the new marks can be awarded on consensus.
