Organised by: Department of Mechanical Engineering, MNIT, Jaipur (Rajasthan)
During: 10-14 August
2020
Venue: MNIT, Jaipur
About the
event: This
course will provide a comprehensive overview of materials manufacturing
processes from the vantage point of elevated-temperature interactions among
materials that manifest themselves in a wide variety of physical phenomena, and
material properties and performance. Robust manufacturing technology demands
scientific understanding of the metallurgical and materials mechanisms and
processes underlying such interactions. The first one-third of the course
content will provide solid foundational knowledge about diverse liquid-state,
solidstate and vapor-state manufacturing processes. The remainder of the course
will comprehensively cover hightemperature interactions, interface formation,
and application to metal-matrix and ceramic-matrix composites, melting
technology, refractory design, melt oxidation, liquid metal corrosion,
solidification, crystal purification, infiltration, soldering, brazing,
coating, sintering, and emerging 3D printing and other advanced processes.
Material
interactions at high temperatures are sensitive to a myriad of material and
test parameters such as contact time, temperature, alloying, roughness,
composition, coatings, atmosphere and crystal orientation among others. Conversely,
such interactions could be used as a sensitive probe to investigate the
material properties and behavior at elevated temperatures. The course will
cover the thermodynamics and kinetics of physical and chemical interactions
among materials at elevated temperatures including spreading and capillary flow,
starting with the classical description of surface energies, contact angle,
work of adhesion, and interface bonding in non-reactive systems and moving to the
more complex reactive spreading controlled by real-time chemical interactions
involving dissolution, oxidation, wetting, reaction, diffusion, segregation and
thermal and mass transport processes that control flow, spreading and interface
formation. Case studies on contact angle and interfaces in oxides, carbon,
carbides, borides, nitrides, silicides, and glass will be presented.
Theoretical principles, processing technology and selected applications of
brazed or diffusion bonded advanced ceramic, metallic and composite joints will
be discussed. The role of thermo-elastic incompatibility and residual stresses
on joint integrity, reliability and functionality will be discussed with the
aid of latest real-world examples of structural, functional, and thermal
management applications. Advanced joining concepts and technology developed
over the last decade at NASA to join new and emerging ceramics and composites
to high-temperature alloys will be described. Stress mitigation strategies
using compliant interlayers of graded expansion and modulus shall be
highlighted. Active learning based on problemsolving approach shall be
implemented to provide each participant with the knowledge and skills needed to
identify problems and generate viable solutions to mitigate manufacturing and
processing problems.
