PROFESSOR ÜMIT CÖCEN

Offered to

Metallurgical and Materials Engineering

Course Objective

The aim of the course is to give information about classification, properties, applications and required properties to be met from metals and alloys such as iron and steels, cast irons, aluminum, copper, magnesium, zinc, nickel and titanium and their alloys and refractory metals. The students are familiarized with relationships between structure, properties and processing in these alloys. It is expected from students to be able to determine an appropriate metallic alloy for a particular requirement.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   be able to classify ferrous and nonferrous metals according to various criteria
2   be able to compare specifications of metallic materials in related classes and other metallic alloys
3   be able to described applications of metallic alloys and properties required to be met,
4   be able to distinguish the strengthening mechanisms and their interactions and the effects on other properties in metallic materials,
5   be able to explain relationships between structures, properties and processing in nonferrous alloys,
6   be able to choose an appropriate metallic alloy for a particular engineering design and application,
