Book: ESSENTIALS OF MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING
Donald R. Askeland and Pradeep Phulé, 1st
edition Thomson, 2004
Note: 2008
edition is also acceptable
Course
Description: This course will provide
the students with the foundations of materials science and engineering. The structure, properties, and performance of
materials are connected, and we will study these linkages throughout the
course. We will, for the most part, exclude mechanical properties, since they
are treated in detail in a separate class (MAE 160).
