1: What free energy curves are; how they can be calculated for any phase; the free energy curve for a pure component and how, for an alloy, the free energy of any phase can be related to its composition; the...
A negative aspect of automotive transport is increasing levels of air pollution. Engineering improvements and materials science help to solve that problem. The catalytic converter is an advanced example of...
Explores the materials science behind the engineering of national electricity supplies, both above and below ground. Shows work inside a high-voltage test lab and inside the production areas for porcelain...
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...
Using models, shows the three important stages of crystal structure that occur in metallic substances: hcp, fcc and bcc. Discusses alloy structures and transitions between different structures in a hot...
Looks at the emerging science of smart materials, which is transforming materials technology. Smart materials change their properties in response to changes in environment.
1: Introduces some fo the properties exhibited by fluids and materials which under conditions behave like a fluid: flow and viscostiy; buoyancy; hydrostatic pressure; and surface energy. Also covers...
Looks at the manufacture in the north of England of new artificial materials with properties similar to those of natural fabrics. Revolutionary new materials from other industries include fibre reinforced...
Training programmes on batch control.
[3: Discusses elementary theory of liquid crystal states and the use of liquid crystals in practical display devices. Includes models of nematic, smectic and cholesteric phases, discusses devices using...
