Welding and Joining Processes
Thomas W. Eagar
Mon-Fri, Jan 8-12, 16-19, 22-26, 29-2, ??-??:00am, online or dvd
Pre-register on WebSIS and attend first class.
Listeners allowed, space permitting
Prereq: Permission of instructor
Level: H 6 units Standard A - F Grading
Discusses a wide variety of processes and materials from the viewpoint of their fundamental physical and chemical properties. Specific topics: cold welding, adhesive bonding, diffusion bonding, soldering, brazing, flames, arcs, high-energy density heat sources, solidification, cracking resistance, shielding methods, and electric contacts. Emphasis on underlying science of a given process rather than a detailed description of the technique or equipment. Meets with first half of subject 3.371J in Fall Term; videotaped instruction in other terms.
Videotaped instruction with individual meetings to be scheduled with the instructor.

Advanced work in the field for qualified students. Lectures, conferences, assigned readings, or supervised laboratory work.
Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) are very attractive materials because of their ability to work as sensors and actuators. Among the different Smart Materials, in which they are classified, SMA are undergoing an increasing development for technological applications in different industrial sectors, Aeronautic, Aerospace and Medical among others. Besides they are promising materials for the new MEMS based technologies.
