Course description and aims

【abstract】This class focuses on the fundamentals of non-ferrous metals and alloys, especially on aluminum and its alloys. Student will learn history of development and usage of aluminum alloys, advanced processing for light weight and high strengthening materials (casting, forming and heat treatment), strengthening mechanism (work hardening, solid solution hardening, precipitation hardening, etc.).
【objective】 Student will learn practical importance of aluminum alloys to achieve fundamentals of material processing, strengthening mechanism, and functionalities of non-ferruos alloys.

Student learning outcomes

The aim of this class is to study the fundamentals of aluminum alloys in terms of processing (production, forming, heat treatment, etc.), strengthening mechanisms, electromagnetic properties related to microstructure.
The typical examples of commercial applications in aluminum alloys are introduced in view of processing (casting, solidification, rolling, heat treatment), principle of strengthening mechanism (solid solution, precipitates and dispersion hardening).
