Description:
The module Metallic glasses and nanomaterials shall enable that students are knowledgeable about the structure of metallic glasses and nanomaterials as well as about methods, phenomena, and processes enabling changes of such materials properties. Owing to that students shall achieve a better understanding of correlations between those materials structure and mechanisms affecting their properties. The understanding of relationships and correlations between properties of metallic glasses and nanomaterials and their structure shall results in honing the skill to shape the properties for technical applications.
Prerequisites:
It is required to achieve effects of education of the modules: physics, chemistry, crystallography, materials testing methods and thermodynamics.
