The central point of
this note is to provide a physical basis that links the structure of materials
with their properties, focusing primarily on metals. Topics covered includes:
Basic crystallography, Crystal shear stress and yielding, Burgers' vector,
Dislocation energy, Dislocation interactions, Crystal structures and their slip
systems, Applying stress, Twinning, Heating metals, Steel properties,
Nanocrystalline metals.
This note covers constitution of alloys and phase
diagrams, Heat treatment process, Ferrous and non ferrous metals, Non metallic
materials, Mechanical properties and deformation mechanics.
