Delves into the solidification process and microstructure of aluminum-silicon alloys, discussing the formation of shrinkage voids and methods to improve mechanical properties.
Explores phase diagrams, solid solutions, and phase transitions in materials science, focusing on the significance of alloy microstructures and phase fractions.
Explores the Bragg-Williams analysis of order-disorder transformations in materials, including enthalpy, entropy, and critical temperature equilibrium.
Covers the formation, classes, and properties of intermetallic compounds, including specific examples like titanium aluminides, nickel aluminides, and iron aluminides.
Covers the introduction to Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), including operating principles, elements, scaling laws, silicon choice, sensors, and actuators.
