TFYY44 Physical Metallurgi, 4,5 ECTS-points
/Fastransformationer/

Advancement level:
C

Aim:
The aim of the course is to give a physical understanding of phase transformations based on a thermodynamical description that can be applied in materials science metallurgy, electronic device development design or construction materials engineering.
