Materials Engineering and Metallurgy

This lecture note covers all the essential issues that need to be understood by an engineer concerning the interplay between materials, structure, and properties. Issues such as metallurgy, crystal physics, and Neumann's symmetry principle are dealt with in detail. Equilibrium thermodynamics, neutron diffraction, and spectroscopy are also touched on, with all discussions on the major classes of materials and the emerging field of nanostructured materials. Focusing on practical applications, it also takes into discussion the most recent concepts, like Moore's Law and their implications to materials engineering. Dedicated to the students and professionals in engineering, this note establishes a scientific basis in choosing and performing the materials.

Material Science And Engineering

This textbook, authored by Dr. Swati Gangwar and Mr. Kapil Kumar, comprehensively covers the very basics of material science and engineering. Classifications of materials are taken up as metals, polymers, composite materials, and biomaterials; their properties and applications are described. Crystal structures are discussed in terms of Bravais lattices, Miller indices, and atomic packing factor. Students will also be introduced to X-ray crystallography and how it might be applied for the determination of inner structure of the materials. Its clarity in structure and rich detail make it extremely useful for courses ranging from introductory to advanced in material science and engineering. Significant emphasis throughout the text, quite markedly, on the importance of understanding material properties and their relationship with structure toward an effective design and application of an engineering material.

Lecture note on earth material: Fundamentals of earth materials, strategic minerals, metals, and their geochemical importance and significance Earth materials-Atoms and elements, elements and their formation in the universe, cosmochemistry Chemical bonds that characterize Earth materials with symmetry, lattices, point groups, and space groups. It further discusses metamorphic petrology, which is rich in dealing with the processes and transformations that occur in Earth's crust. The resource is also important to students of geology, mineralogy, and other related courses for it provides an overview of the material composition and structure of the Earth.
