Purpose of class
The aim is to understand the physical mechanisms by which materials develop functionality and to learn how to apply them.
Course description
Our lives depend on stimulating and developing the economy through ’manufacturing’. Improvements in the functionality of materials have been instrumental in this. At the same time, environmental and energy problems are becoming pressing issues. There are high expectations for the functionality of materials as well as social systems to solve these problems. In this lecture, the current status of actual material development will be introduced using examples such as phase-change materials and thermoelectric materials after organising and understanding the basic functionality of materials.
Goals and objectives
  1. With regard to practical materials, several examples can be given of what functions are required.
  2. Explain the function of materials in terms of the mechanisms underlying their basic physical properties.
  3. Explain data-driven material development.
