Learning outcomes
Fractography is an area of physical metallurgy dealing with evaluation of the fracture planes of fractures. The course is focused on the theory of different types of fractures, mechanism of this processes and methods of investigation. It also deals with concrete cases of fractography in steels, aluminium alloys and application of fractography in energetics. 1. Introduction of Fractography 2. Selected notes on corrosion fractures 3. Criteria for evaluation of fracture faces 4. Selected notes on the theory of fatigue fractures 5. Selected notes on the theory of ductile fractures 6. Selected notes on the theory of brittle failures - cleavage fractures 7. Selected notes on the theory of creep fractures 8. Notes on the fractography of aluminium alloys 9. Notes on the fractography of stainless steels 10. Application of fractography in energetics
