A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Engineering materials classification

Engineering materials are grouped into four main families – metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites – based on their atomic bonding, structure and mechanical behaviour. Mastering this classification helps you predict material performance, select appropriate processing methods and answer exam questions that ask you to match properties with a material type.
