For mechanical engineers and industrial engineers, current materials science is indispensable. Technical innovations are often only possible with new materials, and a targeted selection of materials leads to cost reduction and quality improvement. The content is ideally conveyed through easily understandable presentation and extensive illustrations. The definition of learning objectives facilitates the approach, while practice exercises enable self-assessment and exam preparation.

Excerpt from the content:

• Structure of materials
• Material properties
• Material testing
