(3 units). Essential microstructural features of metals and alloys: crystal structure, dislocations, grain boundaries. The importance of these features in controlling mechanical properties is emphasized. Analytical techniques for observing microstructure in metals and other materials: TEM, SEM, electron diffraction, spectrometry. Course Component: Lecture
