Lab Schedule
Greek Alphabet
Confirmation of Originality Form
Hardness Value Converter
Materials Properties Database You can download the MPDB software from this site for free.
Webelements All you need to know about the chemical elements!

In this course you will understand the mechanical behavior of materials (and metals in particular). This will include the deformation behavior of metals and the ways that metals can fail. More importantly, you will study different methods that are used in the industry to make materials stronger. For more information, please read the course outline.
