Nano- and micromechanics of materials
Course teacher
Domagoj Vrsaljko
Course objective
Introduction to the basic principles of physical phenomena and processes - especially at the microscopic, molecular and atomic levels that determine and explain the macroscopic mechanical behavior of different types of materials under different types of loads.
Course implementation program
1. Loads and fracture mechanisms of process equipment.
2. Mechanics of deformable bodies - Fundamentals and applications. Stress and strain
3. Mechanical properties of materials: static strength.
4. Origin of internal forces, solid state defects.
5. Idealized solids.
6. Hardness and toughness.
7. Creep and relaxation
8. Fatigue and dynamic strength of materials
9. Division of materials and materials processing techniques.
10. Lab exercise - Influence of nanofillers on the properties of composites.
11. SEM and TEM.
12. Lab exercise - composite strength
13. Seminar presentations 1 (Nanocomposites: After the hype; Why is mercury a living liquid (quantum phenomena)).
14. Seminar presentations 2 (Phonon, sound and heat; MEMS and NEMS; Nano- and micromechanics in biosystems).
15. Colloquium.
Developing general and specific student competencies
Mastering the basics on the mechanical behavior of construction materials. Adopting an integrated approach in problem solving.
Student obligations in teaching and ways of their execution
Class attendance: lectures, seminars and laboratory exercises.
Teaching methods
Lectures, seminars and laboratory exercises.
Method of testing knowledge and taking exams
The knowledge test is conducted continuously during the teaching process through conversation.
Oral or written exam
Course learning outcomes
1. predict the mechanical behavior of materials based on knowledge of microstructure
2. predict the mechanical behavior of the material based on an understanding of the process of hardening, fatigue, creep and aging of the material and the occurrence of residual stresses
3. determine the reason for the damage to the process equipment
4. represent your own opinion while working in a team
5. review the ability to communicate orally and in writing with experts in this and related fields
Learning outcomes at the program level to which the course contributes
1. apply extensive and profound knowledge of mathematics, chemical engineering and other sciences for solving scientific and professional problems as well as problems of the society as a whole within the range of their competence
2. interpret advantages and drawbacks of the state-of-the art achievements in the field of chemical engineering
3. recognise the need for finding, providing and disseminating scientific information
4. evaluate the application of new and emerging technologies
5. demonstrate capability to function effectively as a member of a team that may be composed of different disciplines and levels
