Mechanical Engineering

Introduction to metallic materials and the main heat treatments. Mechanical properties and main testing techniques. Structural Integrity of Metals in presence of defects. Integrity in presence of cyclic loadings. Fatigue properties and relationship with the main metallurgical and physical properties. Metallurgy of weldments. Advanced joining techniques. Structural Integrity of metallic components obtained by means of advanced technologies. Description of the main defects due to the main technological processes and their effect on the structural integrity in presence of static and cyclic loading.

No preliminary knowledge is necessary

The assessment will be based on the results of an oral interview, aimed at verifying the acquisition of the following knowledge and skills: - Knowledge of the main metallurgical processes for the production of metallic manufacts. - Ability of identify the main causes of defects in metallic parts due to the process employed. - Correct identification of the most suitable technology to be employed for the fabrication of the products/components as a function of the service conditions. - Ability to communicate the acquired knowledge and to illustrate the proposed technical solutions with clear expression and convincing attitude. During the course students are offered the opportunity to test their preparation by conducting self-assessment written tests (multi-choice questions, solution of numerical problems, essay questions), followed by common correction and, for those who request it, an evaluation of the test. For the final vote the following aspects will be considered: - the level of knowledge - the ability to securely correlate different topics - the ability of applying knowledge to the solution of problems of limited complexity in the field of materials engineering - the ability to communicate the acquired knowledge and to illustrate the technical solutions proposed with clarity using a proper technical vocabulary. To obtain the highest marks (30/30 cum laude), the student must demonstrate that he/she has acquired excellent knowledge of all the topics covered in the course, and that he/she can apply this knowledge to the solution of problems in the field of industrial engineering, proposing original solutions and showing the results of an autonomous extension of knowledge.
