Covers the structure of metallic alloys, ceramics, and organic materials, including crystalline structures and defects in crystals.
Explores the effect of temperature on materials, thermal expansion, and thermomechanical constraints, leading to practical consequences.
Discusses the Vickers hardness test procedure and interpretation of results compared to other hardness tests.
Covers elasticity, deformation, stress-strain relationships, anisotropy, measurement methods, yield strength, and energy storage in materials.
Explores metal plasticity mechanisms, including hardening by solid solution and precipitation, dislocation forests, and polymer behavior in relation to temperature and deformation speed.
