Material Engineering

 TANABE Tadao
Course description
Materials engineering is based on physics and chemistry and is the foundation of all engineering fields, including mechanical and electronic engineering. Materials engineering is designed to understand the fundamental properties of metallic materials, inorganic materials such as ceramics, dielectrics, and magnetic materials, and organic materials such as plastics, and to apply these properties to the applications. In this class, fundamental and applied fields of materials engineering are explained, including the evaluation, understanding, and control of the structure of materials, and the connection of the applications to the properties of materials (mechanical, chemical, thermal, electrical, optical, etc.).
Purpose of class
To understand the intrinsic structures and properties of metallic, inorganic, and organic materials, how to control their properties, and their applications.
Goals and objectives
  1. Describe the elements necessary for the design, manufacturing process, and application of materials.
  2. Explain the physical and chemical properties of each material.
  3. To be able to select materials according to their applications.
