    Introduction to Engineering Materials

    • Engineering materials are crucial for survival and daily life.
    • Gold was the first metal used, followed by copper.
    • Areas of science focusing on materials include Engineering Materials, Material Science, and Materials Engineering.

    Basic Concepts of Crystal Structure

    • Properties of crystalline solids depend on the crystal structure.
    • The manner in which atoms, ions, or molecules are spatially arranged influences these properties.
    • A space lattice or lattice is a periodic arrangement of points in space.
    • A lattice point represents each atom.
    • A lattice array is the arrangement of lattice points.
    • Lattice space is the space covered by lattice points.
    • A unit cell is a tiny block formed by arrangements of small groups of atoms.
    • It represents the symmetry of the crystal structure.
    • The unit cell can be defined as a small repeat entity, the basic structural unit, or the building block of the crystal structure.
    • Lattice parameters (a, b, c, α, β, γ) describe the dimensions and angles of the unit cell.
    • These parameters are typically on the order of a few Angstroms (Å) or 0.1 nanometers.
    • The orientation and equality of these parameters define the 7 crystal systems (cubic, hexagonal, tetragonal, rhombohedral, orthorhombic, monoclinic, and triclinic).

    Bravais Lattices

    • There are 14 types of crystal systems.
    • These systems include properties of centering.
    • Types of centering include Face-Centered, Body-Centered, and Base-Centered.

    Metallic Crystal Structures

    • Simple Cubic (SC):
      • Three mutually perpendicular axes pass through one corner of the unit cell.
      • Each corner is occupied by one atom.
      • Polonium is the only element that has this structure.
      • Packing density is relatively low.
    • Body-Centered Cubic (BCC):
      • Atoms are arranged at the corners of the cube, with an additional atom at the center.
      • Examples include alpha iron, chromium, tungsten, tantalum, and molybdenum.
    • Face-Centered Cubic (FCC):
      • Atoms are arranged at the corners and centers of each face of the unit cell.
      • Atoms are assumed to touch along face diagonals.
      • Examples include aluminum, copper, gold, lead, silver, and nickel.

    Hexagonal Closed-Pack (HCP)

    • The unit cell is formed with top and bottom planes of 7 atoms, and a half-hexagon in between.
    • Two lattice parameters (a and c) define the basal and height parameters.
    • Six atoms are present in one unit cell.
    • Zinc, lithium, magnesium, and beryllium are examples.

    Crystallographic Directions

    • Directions in a crystal are represented by the coordinates (x, y, z) of a vector passing through the origin.

    • Employed in various engineering purposes and requirements.
    • Iron is the most popular metal in engineering.
    • All metals have a crystalline structure.

    Alloys

    • Alloys are mixtures or compounds of two or more elements, at least one of which is metallic.
    • Alloying enhances properties such as strength and hardness.
    • Alloys can be classified as solid solutions or intermediate phases.
    • Substitutional Solid Solution: atoms of a solvent element are replaced in its unit cell by atoms of a dissolved element.
    • Interstitial Solid Solution: atoms of a dissolved element fit into vacant spaces between base metal atoms in the lattice structure.
    • Intermediate Phases: have limits to solubility of one element in another. They have intermediate chemical composition and different crystalline structures.
