MATERIALS ENGINEERING PDH COURSES

---

The objective of this educational course is to refresh engineering about the fundamentals of material science. This course is Vol 1 of 2, which goes over first fundamentals of different metals, including the Structure of Metals & The Properties of Metals. #

The objective of this educational course is to refresh engineering about the fundamentals of material science. This course is Vol 2 of 2, which goes over additional fundamentals of materials science, particularly Thermal Shock, Brittle Fracture, & Material Selections. 

This course describes the mechanisms of corrosion, the types of corrosion commonly experienced, the methods that can be used to control corrosion and methods for implementing an effective corrosion control program. This is volume 1 of 2. 

This course describes the methods that can be used to control corrosion. This course details topics such as corrosion control by coatings, corrosion-resistant metals, synthetic organic & matrix composite materials, cathodic protection, & identification of corrosion problems. 

Throughout this course content different welding types and techniques are examined. The course goes through these different welding methods in detail, including disadvantages and advantages of the different types, as well as conditions on what circumstances impact weld selection. 

The objective of this educational course is to review the basics of welding symbols. This course content breaks down the symbology and meaning behind symbols used for welding for various welding processes and types. 

The objective of this educational course is to review the basics of material properties & heat treatment. This course content breaks down the general properties of metals and materials which includes the different properties and characteristics of metals and alloys. 

This course provides a discussion of the major issues and concerns of the global supply chain for Rare Earth Elements. REEs, their major end uses, and legislative and other policy proposals that Congress may consider to improve the U.S. rare earth position. 

This course examines the role of rare earth metals and other key materials in the clean energy economy. The report focuses in particular on the role of key materials in renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies. 

This course outlines methods to determine the effects of fiber orientation on the dynamic strength and ductility of Cor-Tuf Baseline, a UHPC developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Design topics include comparison to limitations of normal strength concrete.

This course highlights the Scientific Operating Procedure that is used to investigate the mechanical properties of nanostructured materials or the properties of materials at the nanoscale. In particular, materials parameters including hardness and Young’s modulus are determined. 

This course investigated how the carbon source impacts the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of Carbon Nanotubes, specifically the gross mechanical properties of the self-assembled CNT forest and not on the properties of individual CNTs.
