ASEN-4222 (3) Materials Science for Composite Manufacturing

Studies common matrix materials and the modificationsand improvements of properties which can be achieved by adding second phase reinforcements. Properties will be significantly affected by the design approach and by requirements, and by the procedure of adding reinforcements. Investigates polymer, ceramic and metallic materials. Explores manufacturing, fabrication and processing techniques. Evaluates future developments. Same as ASEN 5222. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of ASEN 3112 and prerequisite or corequisite course of ASEN 4012 (all minimum grade C). Restricted to Aerospace Engineering (ASEN) majors only.
