What will I learn?
This course offers a quick and practical way to master 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, and relate them to slip systems, critical resolved shear stress, strength, ductility, creep, and high-temperature properties, using examples, tools, and references for immediate use.
