ECTS number : 3
The objectives of this course are to provide students with an understanding of the physical phenomena involved in the thermomechanical processing (rolling, forging) of metallic materials. The knowledge acquired will then be used to discuss microstructural models of the transformations that occur during a treatment, in order to give the students tools to model such phenomena. As the behaviour of the material under thermomechanical processing conditions depends strongly on its crystallographic structure and some of its parameters (stacking fault energy), different classes of materials will be treated, such as aluminium alloys, steels and hegagonal materials (titanium, zirconium).
