Metallurgy of Steel: Principles 3 Hours | On Demand Course I.D.# PD261326ON
Principles of Metallurgy 4 Hours | On Demand Course I.D.# PD261322ON
This online course teaches the phases and microstructures that form in steels, their effects on steel properties, the microstructure changes that occur when steel is heated and cooled, the effects of carbon content and cooling rate on the microstructures that form. Also, how to read the iron-carbon phase diagram will be discussed. All this information is applicable to understanding the effects of steel heat treating processes and heat treating process parameters on the microstructure and properties of heat treated plain carbon, low-alloy, and tools steels. The course is divided into six modules followed by a quiz. Learning Objectives By participating in this online course, you will be able to: • Explain the designation systems used for steel alloys • Identify the alloying elements and carbon content in carbon and low-alloy steels based on their alloy designations • Describe the common metallurgical phases and microstructures found in steels • Identify six phase fields on an iron-carbon phase diagram • Explain the effects of the different microstructures that form in steel on steel strength and hardness • Explain the metallurgical changes that occur inside steel during heat and cooling • Explain how the iron-carbon phase diagram and time- temperature-transformation diagrams are used to predict the phases present in a steel based on a heat treating thermal cycle • Relate the interactions between heat treating temperature, heat treating time, cooling rate, and steel composition on a steel’s microstructure and properties Who Should Attend This online course is targeted to design, manufacturing, and quality engineers, and sourcing specialists. It is suggested that, as a prerequisite, you have basic knowledge of solid solution, substitutions, interstitials, diffusion, effects of process temperature and time on diffusion and metallurgical changes, metallurgical phases, grains, grain boundaries, dislocations or the concepts covered in our Principles of Metallurgy online course. Topical Outline • Steel types and designations • Metallurgical phases that form in steel and their effects on properties
This online course teaches the basic microscopic structures present inside of metals, how these structures and metal compo- sition influence metal strength, and how these structures can be modified using common manufacturing processes to obtain specific mechanical properties. Several examples are presented to demonstrate how common alloying and manufacturing methods are used to modify the microscopic structures and properties of metals. It includes twelve modules that are five to 25 minutes in length, followed by a quiz. Learning Objectives By participating in this online course, you will be able to: • Explain the relationship between a metal’s properties and its composition, microscopic structure, and the manufacturing processes used to fabricate the metal • Describe three types of microscopic structures present in metals • Explain how cold working, alloying, and heat treating are used to strengthen a metal • Explain the microstructure and property changes that occur in cold worked metals during annealing, in steels during through hardening, and during precipitation strengthening heat treatments • Relate the heat treatment time and temperature to the microscopic structures and properties of through hardened steels, cold-worked metals, and precipitation strengthened alloys Who Should Attend This course is targeted towards design, manufacturing, and quality engineers, and sales people and purchasing agents with technical backgrounds.
Topical Outline • Composition • Microscopic structures • Crystal defects • Diffusion • Cold Working • Annealing
