Department of Mechanics and Materials
Basic course of materials science and engineering explains mechanical properties of structural materials based on their bonding forces and microstructure. However the main attention is paid to metals as the most important engineering materials, also other major classes of materials are presented, namely ceramics, polymers and composites. Attention is also paid to degradation processes in materials, to defectoscopy and to main mechanical tests.
