Powder metallurgy is a technology used for producing a wide range of parts from metal powders. This programme shows how the process of near-net shape forming reduces or elimates the need for secondary...
4 (72 min): Explores water purity, safety and the role that chemistry plays in managing the environment. Looks at water management from the maintenance of river water quality to the detailed chemistry of the...
An introduction to metal technologies in archaeology, intended as a replacement for specialist lectures and/or tutorials. Comprises seven one-hour teaching sessions.
An introduction to surface treatment of metal tools by ion implantation. This technique modifies the tool surface, improving the wear, corrosion resistance and frictional properties. The SPRINT project...
Uses case studies from the aerospace industry to introduce the materials science course. Each of three films looks at a different airplane part: the first (filmed at British Aerospace) is about the...
Presented by architect Chris Todhunter who proposes the importance and versatility of cast metals in buildings is re-emerging as seen in such diverse projects as Waterloo International Terminal and Stansted...
Shows how materials engineers use phase diagrams to form a base on which to design the composition of alloys, because the way in which alloys are heat treated during processing influences the way they...
A series of video programmes on the manufacture of components. The material shows actual (not idealised) practice, giving a realistic impression of both the process and industry. The series assumes no prior...
In the mid-19th century aluminium was a precious metal. By the 1930s it was a bulk material, used in aircraft manufacture, electrical cables, kitchenware and motor cars. By 1950 its applications were...
The strength of welded joints can be seriously reduced by defects, both those introduced during welding and those which arise in service, such as fatigue cracks. For both critical welded joints in new...
