ME-GY 6263 Mechanical Behavior of Materials

3 Credits
Analyze the effect of applied external load on the deformation of a material is critical for engineering design and the performance of materials during application. Response of the a material to the applied load at the atomic and microstructural level is analyzed. This course focuses on elastic vs. plastic deformation, defects and dislocations, various strengthening mechanisms, creep and fatigue response in materials.

Prerequisite(s): Graduate Standing
