Material Science

Developer's DescriptionBy SoftecksTo make any engineered device, structure or product you need the right material.To make any engineered device, structure or product you need the right material.Materials Science and Engineering is the study of all materials, from those we see and use everyday such as a glass or a piece of sport equipment to those used in aerospace and medicine.Materials Scientists or Engineers, through understanding how materials work, can create new materials for new applications as well as develop existing materials to improve performance. They can control the structure of a material, from an atomic level up, so that its properties, for example strength, can be tailored to suit a particular application.In This App we have elaborated All basic to Advanced concepts on Material science.Few Topics Covered in this App are Listed BelowMaterial Science IntroductionImportance of MaterialsHistorical PerspectiveWhy Study Materials Science and Engineering?Classification of MaterialsAdvanced MaterialsModern Material's NeedsThomson atomic modelRutherford modelBohr modelModern concept of atomic modelPrimary Interatomic Bonds - Ionic BondingCovalent BondingMetallic BondingSecondary Bonding (Van der Waals)CrystallographyBravais latticesMetallic Crystal StructuresCrystalline and Non-crystalline materialsMiller IndicesImperfections in SolidsX-RAY DIFFRACTIONElastic deformationPlastic deformationTensile PropertiesTrue Stress and StrainMohs Hardness ScaleThe Brinell Hardness TestRockwell Hardness TestVickers Hardness TestMicro-hardness TestThe Scleroscope Hardness TestThe DurometerFailure - Fundamentals of FractureDuctile FractureBrittle FractureImpact FractureDuctile brittle transitionFatigueCrack Initiation and PropagationCreepStress and Temperature EffectsDislocations and Strengthening MechanismsPlastic DeformationMechanisms of Strengthening in MetalsStrengthening by Grain Size ReductionSolid-Solution StrengtheningStrain HardeningNon-Destructive testing (NDT)Ultrasonic TestLiquid-Penetration testMicrostructural ExamGrain size determinationPhase DiagramsInterpretation of phase diagramsEutectoid and Peritectic ReactionsPrecipitation reactionsKinetics of nucleation and growthSolid SolutionsThe IronCarbon DiagramCritical temperaturesVarious types of carbon steelAlloy steelCast ironGrey cast ironWhite cast ironMalleable cast ironDuctile cast ironCast Iron UsesHeat TreatmentFull annealingNormalizingProcess AnnealingStress Relief AnnealSpheroidizationTemperingHardeningQuench MediaCase HardeningCarburizingCyanidingNitridingFlame HardeningDiffusionCopper AlloysAluminumZincChromiumBrasses & BronzesDielectric MaterialsDielectric strengthIntrinsic dielectric strengthMagnetic PropertiesFerromagnetismAntiferromagnetismHard Magnetic MaterialsSoft Magnetic MaterialsMagnetic TapesMagnetic DisksElectrical PropertiesElectrical Resistivity of MetalsSemiconductivitySemiconductor DevicesConduction in Ionic MaterialsSuperconductivityMeissner Effect & Superconductor TypesCeramics (Applications and Processing)Types and applications of ceramicsPortland CementProcessing of PlasticsCOMPOSITESSmart materialsNano - MaterialsFRACTUREFATIGUECrack Initiation and PropagationCorrosion of Ceramics
