Covers prerequisite chemistry topics for materials science and introduces material types, properties and behavior for aerospace engineers. Topics include review of chemistry; atomic bonding; crystals; diffusion; mechanical/thermal properties; phase diagrams; heat treatment; failure mechanisms; materials selection; and a general introduction to modern materials for aerospace engineering applications including composites, nanomaterials and metamaterials. Lab project or tensile testing is included. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite courses of APPM 1350 or MATH 1300 (minimum grade C). Requires corequisite courses of GEEN 1300 or CSCI 1300 or ECEN 1310. Restricted to Aerospace Engineering (ASEN) majors only.
