Knowledge
The student who completes the course successfully will be able to demonstrate a solid knowledge of the main issues related to the mechanical metallurgy, heat treatments of metals along the mechanical components chain, with particular attention to the steps that follow the semi-products production. He or she will acquire knowledge of systems and technologies of metal processing, and will be able to analyze and correlate their principles. Lastly, he or she will be aware of modern approaches of the major types of metallic materials (steel, aluminium, Ti alloys...)

Syllabus
The course provides notions on the main metallic components, as well as the mechanical and technologic characteristics of metal alloys, their fracture processes and its causes (corrosion, temperature, fatigue stress...). The course also approaches the main issues related to technological processes, the theory of deformation and plasticity of metals and the principles and methods of failure risk analysis. The second part of the course focuses on the sheets steel for automotive and heavy plates for mechanical and energetic plant industry. Lastly, some issues related to the heat treatments of steel and aluminium alloys are presented and discussed
