Insulation materials Insulation materials 1第一页 Whats materials science and engineering?2第二页Materialshavealwaysbeenimportanttotheadvanceofcivilization.Such asStone age andBronze age3第三页Structural and propertiesIt was not until relatively recent times that scientists came to understand the relationship between the structural elements of materials and their properties. Materials processing process not only alters the structure ,but also decides the material characteristic and performance. 4第四页What is it used to solve?Material engineering mainly to solve the problem and create material application.5第五页Whats is it used to solve?Advancement in the understanding of a material type is often the forerunner to the stepwise progression of a technology. For example, automobiles would not have been possible without the availability of inexpensive steel or some other comparable substitutes. In our contemporary era, sophisticated electronic devices rely on components that are made from what are called semiconducting materials. 6第六页7第七页8Why do we study materials?第八页 Why do we study materials? Many an applied scientists or engineers, whether mechanical, civil, chemical, or electrical, will be exposed to design problem involving materials at one time or another. Examples might include a transmission gear, the superstructure for a building, an oil refinery component, or an integrated circuit chip. 9第九页Whats materials science and engineeringOf course, materials science and engineering is totally involved in the investigation and design of materials.10第十页select the right materials Many times, a materials problem is to select the right materials from many thousands available ones. There are several criteria on which the final decision is normally based. First of all, the in-service conditions must be characterized. 11第十一页In-service conditions12第十二页select the right materials A second selection consideration is any deterioration of material properties that may occur during service operation. Finally, probably the overriding consideration is economics. 13第十三页deterioration of material properties14第十四页The more familiar an engineer or scientist is with the various characteristics and structure-property relationships, as well as processing techniques of materials, the more proficient and confident he or she will be to make judicious materials choices based on these criteria. 15第十五页16Thank You!第十六页
