Objectives

The discipline of Mechanical Metallurgy has as main objectives to give students a general view about the metallurgical variables affecting the mechanical behaviour of metallic materials. Both mechanical and metallurgical aspects of the following topics are studied:

1)Metal structure and crystallization
2)Inelastic deformation
3)Strength mechanisms
4)Constitution of metallic alloys and phase diagrams
5)Mechanical testing

Program

1)Metal structure and crystallization.
2)Inelastic deformation of monocristals and polycristals.
3)Phase diagrams
4)Strength mechanics
5)Materials testing: tension, impact, fatigue and creep testing
6)Fracture

Teaching methods and learning activities

Mechanical Metallurgy is organized in theoretical and practical classes dealing with the following topics:
1 -Cristallography
2 –Mechanical Behaviour
3 –Equilibrium Diagrams
4 – Tools supporting Metallurgy

- temperature control
- metallography
- mechanical tests

Experimental work will be carried out on topics given in theoretical classes, with emphasis on metallography, mechanical tests and heat treatments that promote alloy hardening.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation without final exam

Eligibility for exams

The students must attend 75% of laboratory classes

Calculation formula of final grade

Average of experimental studies marks (30%) + average of two tests (70%)

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

See general rules of FEUP.
