Course Description		Introduction to structural ceramics (ceramics in heat engines, bearings, ceramics for metal shaping, wear resistant parts, bioceramics, military ceramics, implications of high performance structural ceramicsMicrostructure-performance relations of structural ceramics and fracture toughness and creep issues. Transformation toughening mechanisms Design concept with structural ceramics (key structural characteristics, conceptual design, todays design process), Weibull analysis.). Carbides, Nitrides, , Oxides and other important structural ceramic groups.
Course Outcomes		Graduate students who who pass the course will be able to: 1.Learn the differences between different ceramic material groups and application fields of structural ceramics. 2. Learn the raw materials, processing and characterization options for production of structural ceramics. 3.Distinguish key microstructures leading different desired performance considering fracture toughness. 4. Understand design concept for structural ceramics and importance of Weibull analysis. 5. Learn carbide, nitride, oxide based and other structural ceramic groups and their application fields. 6.Gain the ability of how to search latest research articles related to structural ceramics and report and present contemporary issues based on the literature survey.
