Introduction to Materials and Properties

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around materials and their properties, focusing on various aspects such as dislocations in metals, crystallography, and educational resources related to materials science. The scope includes theoretical insights and links to external resources for further exploration.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Resource sharing

Main Points Raised

  • One participant provides a summary of materials and their properties, sharing a link to an educational resource.
  • Another participant expresses appreciation for the summary and suggests it be made more prominent in the forum.
  • A different participant shares information specifically about dislocations in metals, including links to relevant documents and presentations.
  • Additional resources on metal and mineral crystallography are shared, along with links to various educational materials related to materials science.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants appear to agree on the value of the shared resources, but there is no explicit consensus on any specific theories or concepts regarding materials and their properties.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes various external links and resources, which may have differing levels of depth and focus. The assumptions underlying the shared materials are not explicitly stated, and the relevance of each resource may vary based on individual perspectives.

Bookmarked that one instantly, thanks big man.

Russ, can we sticky this please?
 
Here is some dislocation Information on metals.

Some sources on metal and mineral crystallography.

Here's a good presentation to download - www.cbu.edu/~bbbeard/429/BBB_Crystals.ppt

and download this - www.oup.co.uk/pdf/0-19-856826-6.pdf[/URL] - which gives Chapter 1 of Fionn Dunne's [QUOTE]Introduction to Computational Plasticity[/QUOTE]
