| Course Contents | ||
| Material Characterization course content includes the fundamental principles of material analysis and classification. It begins with sample preparation and measurable parameters, followed by an introduction to X-ray diffraction methods and thermal analysis techniques. The course includes a detailed study of thermal analysis methods such as TG, DTG, and DSC, along with their comparison. Students will also explore thermomechanical (dilatometric) analysis methods, and dilatometer applications are studied. The course includes industrial analysis applications and an evaluation of approaches and technical choices for material characterization. The overall aim is to equip students with comprehensive knowledge of material characterization and the various techniques used in material analysis. | ||
