Learning outcomes
The aim of this course is to highlight topics regarding metallic materials; the study in the Metallurgy course is based on the analysis of correlations between chemical composition, structure, properties and performances pointing out the method of choice of materials and the best thermal treatments to obtain the best results.
Course contents
• Crystals and lattice defects

• Phase diagrams of metallic alloys

• Mechanical testing of metals and alloys (Tensile strength, hardness, fatigue, impact toughness)

• Bain experiences: TTT and CCT diagrams

• Thermal treatments

• Typical microstructures of steels

• Surface treatments.

• Fundamentals of ductile-brittle fracture, Fatigue, Corrosion of metallic materials, Wear damage, Creep

• Properties and applications of steels (quenching and tempering steels, spring steels, case hardening steels, nitriding steels, stainless steels) and cast irons

• Properties and application of selected non-ferrous alloys (Al, Cu alloys)
