After successful completion of the course, students are able to analyze the relationships between the structure and properties of materials using simple and largely universally valid physical models. Furthermore, they will know the corresponding material parameters with their orders of magnitude and are able to solve typical examples from the field of materials science.

Details like lecture dates please find in the German version.
The lecture is based on the book "G. Fasching: Materials for Electrical Engineering; (in German) Springer-Verlag, 2006".

This semester, knowledge transfer due to the Covid-19 situation is offered in a distance learning format. Both the inverted classroom and live lectures via video conference are used. Inverted classroom means that the lecture is made available as a recorded stream in the TUWEL or that a chapter in the textbook is entered as self-study and that a video meeting takes place every week in which open questions can be discussed and discussed. Between the lecture stream and the video meeting, there will be time to anonymously collect questions via TUWEL, which will then also be discussed. It is therefore important that all students either enroll in the TUWEL course independently or are automatically enrolled at the beginning of the semester by registering in TISS.

The first video meeting will be on October 6th. take place, the associated instructional videos will be made available at TUWEL about a week in advance.

Accompanying the lecture a corresponding Materials Internship 366.105 will be held in the winter semester and the summer semester.

Important: Separate registration for the accompanying Materials Laboratory Exercise 366.105 in TISS

The lecture examination is both in the written and oral format. Duration maximum 105 min. Only a pocket calculator is allowed as an aid. The material is given by the lectures and the corresponding chapters of the book "Werkstoffe der Elektrotechnik" and the script "Mechanische Werkstoffeigenschaften" (see documents).

With regard to the current situation, we will hold the exam either in face-to-face or online format, depending on the situation. Please note this when registering for exams (the exams are marked accordingly).

Registrations for the written exams via TISS. Oral examinations take place in the following days by individual arrangement.

Course coordinator: Prof. F. Keplinger / Prof. S. Schmid
Help with organizational questions: M. Nuhsbaumer (martina.nuhsbaumer@tuwien.ac.at)

Registration is required this semester in order to have a common communication platform. Based on the registrations in TISS, all participants are enrolled in the associated TUWEL course on 27.09. at 20:00. Later participants can join the TUWEL course themselves.

There are no registration restrictions.
