Course Description
This training course is designed to give a semi-detailed discussion of the subject of Engineering Metallurgy with emphasis on the physical metallurgy aspect. In order for the course material to suit participants with or without a metallurgical background, the course will be delivered such that most of technical terms and concepts will be clarified by both scientific definition and examples. The course is divided into six main areas: Basic physical and chemical aspect, Alloying metallurgy and phase diagrams, introduction to carbon steels and cast irons, Strength of Materials, Mechanical Properties and Mechanical Testing and metallographic techniques. The course is designed such that no previous background in metallurgy is necessary. The course can, also, be tailored for specific needs if required by certain participants.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
-
- Appreciate the meanings of different technical terms and concepts used in engineering metallurgy
- Understand the difference between metals and alloys and the need for alloying
- Be able to choose the appropriate material for a certain application
- Carry out mechanical testing
- Choose the right metallographic examination for a specific microstructural examination.
- Relate type of material and microstructure to chemical composition and thermal and mechanical (thermo-mechanical) history of the material.
- Relate different mechanical properties to material’s microstructure and thermo-mechanical history.
