Current Topics in Physical Metallurgy

The seminar is held in an inverted classroom format, consisting of bi-weekly seminar sessions with lecture videos for self-study in preparation of each session. During the seminar sessions, a specific topic will be discussed from a theoretical and application point of view followed by practical exercises that students will be working on individually or in small groups. The seminar covers a variety of current topics in physical metallurgy such as: - Uniaxial and small scale mechanical testing - Imaging and quantification of dislocations - Finite element simulations - Severe plastic deformation
