Mechanical Behavior of Materials National Taiwan University
Course Overview
In this course, we will study the mechanical behavior of materials, from the continuum mechanics to the atomic and molecular mechanisms that are responsible for those properties in metallic materials. We will cover elastic and plastic deformation, creep, fracture of materials including crystalline and amorphous metals and will focus on the relationship between microstructure and mechanical behavior.
