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