AimsToggle Navigation
Specific competences of the subject:
CM 1. To understand the fundamentals of science, technology and chemistry of materials for its application in engineering.
CM 2. To understand the relationship between microstructure, synthesis or processing and properties of materials.
Transversal competences:
C.12. To adopt a responsible and organized attitude at work and to show a willingness to learn, considering the need for continuous training that the exercise of the profession will undoubtedly require.
C.13 To apply the strategies of scientific methodology: to analyze the problem qualitatively and quantitatively; to rise hypotheses and propose solutions using engineering models.
C.14 To work efficiently in groups integrating skills and knowledge to take decisions in the development of the technological subjects.
Learning outcomes:
To properly use the specific terminology of the subject, expressing the basic fundamentals of Materials Science through the correct use of verbal, mathematical and graphic language.
To distinguish the main types of materials and relate their different characteristics with their different applications.
To relate the internal structure of materials with their specific physicochemical and mechanical properties, establishing the impact that these properties have on the practical performance of each material.
To understand the concept of the equilibrium state of a material and to reason in what way a mechanical or thermal treatment can change this state and, therefore, the properties of the material.
To work cooperatively in tasks framed in the field of Materials Science, doing teamwork by analyzing and discussing ideas among team members.
TemaryToggle Navigation
Lesson 1. Structure of condensed matter.
Crystalline and amorphous structure. Types of materials. Defects of the crystalline structure. Diffusion phenomena.
Lesson 2. Solidification
Solidification mechanisms. Phase diagrams.
Lesson 3. Manufacturing of materials
Obtaining and processing metallic, polymeric, ceramic and composite materials. Natural resources, synthesis, recycling.
Lesson 4. Properties of materials
Mechanical, electrical and magnetic properties of materials and their relationship with the structure. Material testing. Other physical and chemical properties.
Lesson 5. Modification of the structure of materials.
Thermal, thermochemical and thermomechanical treatments. Effect on the properties of materials.
Lesson 6. Materials for engineering
Metallic, polymeric, ceramic and composite materials. Properties, classification and applications. New materials for new applications.
Lesson 7. Service conditions and failure diagnosis
Corrosion, fatigue, creep, wear and aging conditions. Failure analysis.
Lesson 8. Materials selection
Criteria for materials selection: service requirements and economic criteria.
Laboratory practices:
-Thermal treatment (Quenching and tempering of metal probes).
-Mechanical tests (charpy, tensile test, hardness test).
-Metallography (sample obtaining and preparation).
-Characterization of polymers (Fluidity index)
-Electrical and magnetic properties of materials
-Non-destructive testing
MethodologyToggle Navigation
In theoretical lectures, conceptual contents of the subject will be explained with the participation of the students in occasional discussions.
In the laboratory practices experimental works will be developed to acquire knowledge and skills of experimental techniques used in Materials Science, showing the student’s progress in a laboratory notebook or other type of tool.
In order to facilitate and ensure the students' learning, the laboratory practices will be monitored. Feedback will be provided based on previously established evaluation criteria, so that students have the opportunity to be aware of their learning, as well as ways to improve it.
In case of small groups, the lecturer may propose modifications in the methodology by introducing autonomous learning activities (PBL, cases, etc.). The methodology will be detailed exhaustively in a student's notebook that will be included in the guide of the subject.
The student must consult and follow the indications that the lecturers of the subject publish in eGela according to the calendar of the subject, as well as the modifications that can be made due to unforeseen causes.
To the extent of the possibilities of each group-lecturer, work on issues related to sustainability could be introduced along the lines proposed by the IKD-i3 model of the university. Activities that address Sustainable Development (SD) through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations could be implemented.
Assessment systemsToggle Navigation
The final mark will be calculated as follows:
Exam = 65%.
Practical reports and laboratory work = 30%.
Others (works/attitude...) = 5%.
The teaching guides will include both the procedure and the deadlines that the student must follow to carry out the resignation, being these at least 9 weeks for quarterly subjects and at least 18 weeks for annual subjects, counting from the beginning of the quarter or course respectively, according to the academic calendar of the center. The student must submit in writing to the responsible faculty his/her waiver of continuous (or mixed) evaluation in accordance with the established procedure and deadlines (Article 8.3).
Clarifications:
The 65% of the grade that is evaluated by exam may correspond to a single final test or to a final test plus other tests taken during the course.
In order to pass the subject, both the part evaluated continuously and the part evaluated in the final test must be passed.
In the cases in which the attendance to the laboratory is not possible as stated in the regulations, and that justify the request of a final evaluation, the student must prove in the final test the achievement of competences and knowledge of the subject.
In order to pass the laboratory practices, it is mandatory to complete all the practices.
The grade of the laboratory practice reports that are approved will only be kept until the extraordinary exam of the same academic year.
When the final exam represents a percentage equal to or higher than 50% of the grade, students who do not take the final exam will be considered as not having taken the evaluation and will be considered as not presented. In the case that the student has passed the evaluated tasks continuously, this evaluation will not be saved for subsequent exams.
When the final test represents a percentage lower than 50% of the grade, the student may waive the evaluation call by writing to the teacher of the subject within a period not less than ten days before the start date of the official examination period. In the case that the student would have passed the continuously evaluated assignments, the evaluation will be saved only for the extraordinary exam of the same academic year.
Students who take the final exam and pass it but not passed the continuously evaluated part, will be considered to have taken the evaluation, but will not have passed the course. The result of the final exam will not be saved for subsequent exams.
Students who choose to appear for the first time in an EXTRAORDINARY call must pass in a single final test the set of knowledge and skills of the subject.
In the case that health/sanitary conditions prevent the realization of a teaching activity and / or face-to-face evaluation, a non-face-to-face mode will be activated, of which students will be promptly informed.
