Metallurgy Lab
Overview
- Material science is the science where we study and investigate relationship between the properties of the materials to their atomic structure.
- Properties are very important in the process of designing the durable components / machines / structures etc. These properties include mechanical properties, thermal properties, electrical properties, optical properties or magnetic properties or deteriorative properties. All of these properties are decided by the atomic arrangement of the materials.
- In addition to structure and properties, two other important components are involved in the science and engineering of materials—namely, processing” and “performance”. With regard to the relationships of these four components, the structure of a material will depend on how it is processed. Furthermore, a material’s performance will be a function of its properties.
- This laboratory provides the know-how of the atomic structures of materials and possible defects therein through various animated computerized models. Properties are also dependent on the micro-structure (grain structure and phase structure) of the materials. With the help of different equipments and machines the students are motivated to analyze the micro-structure and to estimate the resulting properties out of it.
