Course Objective

Students who successfully complete this course, the mechanical properties of materials, nano-micro scale, and how it is obtained will be intense and deep understanding of context will have the ability to use the information gained from their research topics. This is the main reason the micromechanical testing methods, the composites micromechanical point simulation, embedded in the unit cell, multi-phase, finite element and Automatic creation of 3D content, a detailed finite element models based on micro- information by examining the students' mechanical and expanded as a simulation model. The fracture behavior of materials for the analysis of performance data to identify and work environment damage and fracture simulation, multi-phase materials, crack growth, and the mechanism of ductile fracture model, metal, ceramic well as elastic and plastic fracture energy connections, complex, gradient and penetrating inward mikroyaplar, atomistic dislocation model examined in detail.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Provide students with physically-based foundational knowledge of mechanical and tribological behavior of interfaces at the atomic/molecular/nanometer scale
2   Illustrate the current research approaches to studying these problems in terms of experiments, theory, and computation
3   Discuss the mechanical and tribological behavior of specific materials, and demonstrate how specific material properties and conditions affect nano-scale mechanical and tribological behavior
4   Expose students to the cross-disciplinary intersections that occur between mechanics and materials science, chemistry, physics, and biology when working at the nano-scale
5   Enhance students appreciation of the current state and potential future impact of nanotechnology, and how nanomechanics and nanotribology are important for this
