Contenu du cours
Structure of crystalline (metals and ceramics) and amorphous (glasses) solids, phase diagrams, diffusion, thermodynamics of interfaces, phase transformations in steells, phenomenological theory of martensitic transformation, titanium and aluminum alloys.
Methods of characterization of solids and liquids based on the interaction with photons, electrons and ions : principles, limitations and applications.
Objectifs (et/ou acquis d'apprentissages spécifiques)
Understanding the formation of microstructures in inorganic materials based on thermodynamics and kinetics principles.
Understand the principles of the characterization methods and being able to choose and apply one or more methods to solve a given analytical problem.
Méthodes d'enseignement et activités d'apprentissages
Ex-cathedra class. The concepts are applied in a mini-project realized in group and common to the 'surface treatmentes' class.

Autre
Oral exam during which the students will have to explain a few slides to show their understanding of the concepts and explain their choice of methods to solve a practical problem of characterization.
Mini-project evaluation : personal work and written report
Construction de la note (en ce compris, la pondération des notes partielles)
Oral exam: 60%
mini-project: 40% (20% individual mark for the quadrimester work, 20 % group mark for the written report)
