Course Description:
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the powder metallurgy process, beginning with powder production methods, characterization of metal powders, compaction techniques, and sintering, followed by an overview of their applications in modern engineering. Particular emphasis is placed on sintering and its classification, which will be examined in detail. The course also explores the mechanisms of solid-state sintering and includes an in-depth discussion of various types of liquid-phase sintering. By the end of the course, students will acquire a strong theoretical foundation in the core processes of powder metallurgy and their relevance to industrial practice.
