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