ECTS number : 3
Damage under an aggressive environment is a part of physical metallurgy describing the origins of damage and cracking of metallic alloys with their consequences on structural strength. We will recall various causes of intrinsic damage of alloys (segregations, precipitations, work hardening) which can lead on the one hand to the shift of the brittle-to-ductile transition temperature and on the other hand to intergranular brittleness. The specific role of the aggressive environment will be described thereafter.
Thus the course will be structured in three parts:
This course is also intended to make students aware of the need to take into account the cost of operating industrial facilities from the design stage.
