Course Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course, the students will be able to:
- Discuss the mechanisms of the role of dislocation and stacking fault on plastic deformation.
- Assess the behavior of materials under high temperature, metallurgical factors and life prediction of high temperature materials.
- Distinguish the characteristics, factors and method of life prediction in the stress and strain controlled fatigue.
- Appraise the micro-mechanics and micro-structural aspects of fatigue.
- Design and develop a procedure to perform failure analysis and generate a report.
