Crystalline Structure Course
Explore FCC and BCC crystal structures, packing efficiency, slip systems, and creep mechanisms to forecast material density, strength, and high-temperature performance. Transform atomic-level knowledge into enhanced alloy design, failure prediction, and informed materials choices in chemistry and engineering.

What will I learn?
This course offers a rapid, hands-on approach to understanding FCC and BCC lattices, unit cell geometry, coordination numbers, and packing factors. Participants will learn to calculate theoretical density, atomic packing factors, and atoms per unit cell, and relate these to slip systems, critical resolved shear stress, strength, ductility, creep, and elevated-temperature properties through practical examples, tools, and key references for immediate use.
