Learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course, students are able to identify particularities of ceramic engineering materials and the resulting fields of application, to describe the ceramic processing chain from the powder-based starting materials up to the final parts, to explain the main shaping techniques and the underlying physical-chemical principles, and to discuss the most important structural-ceramic materials with respect to their property profiles, fabrication approaches, and fields of application.

Subject of course

After a short historical overview and an overview over typical fields of application of engineering ceramics, the ceramic processing chain is discussed in detail, including the underlying physical-chemical processes. In addition to the conventional processing route, alternative processing approaches are presented (additive manufacturing, ceramic coatings, porous ceramics, polymer-derived ceramics), and selective oxide and non-oxide ceramic materials are discussed. Additionally, the mechanical properties of ceramics are discussed (linear-elastic fracture mechanics), including the respective implications for the successful technological implementation of ceramic materials. (ceramic-suitable design, ceramic joining).

Teaching methods

The contents are conveyed via lectures, which are intercepted regularly by teacher-student interactions, and buzz group acitivies. Furthermore, a large variety of course unit-related showpieces are presented. The lecture slides will be provided via TUWEL.

Mode of examination

Oral

Additional information

ATTENTION: This course replaces the course "Engineering Ceramic Materials" (161.469) - it is thus not possible to receive credits for both courses!

The lecture will take place in-person. Depending on the circumstances, the (oral) examination will take place in presence or online; the examination mode will not change.
