INTRODUCTION TO MATERIAL SCIENCE
AND ENGINEERING
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this chapter, students
should be able to:
- Explain the fundamental of material science
History of Materials Science & Engineering
• materials closely connected our culture
• the development and advancement of societies are dependent on the available
materials and their use
• early civilizations designated by level of materials development
MATERIALS SELECTION!
historical overview
• Paleolithic (40,000 to • Iron Age (1000 – 3000 yrs
100,000 yrs ago): Stone ago): Carburized Iron,
tools and clay pots improved forging, porcelain
• Mesolithic (10,000 to 40,000 • Steel and concrete (100 –
yrs ago): Extensive use of 1000 yrs ago)
stone tools and clay, stone • Polymers (beginning early
statues, ochre (pigment) 1900s)
• Copper Age (5,000 to 10,000 • Silicon (60s – )
yrs ago): Copper • The present: Age of bio- and
ornaments, earthenware, nanomaterials?
metal smelting
• Bronze Age (3,000 to 5,000
yrs ago): Bronze MATERIALS CAN DEFINE THE
(Cu/Sn),glass, iron smelting SOCIETY
Why do we study materials?
• applied scientists or engineers must make material choices
• materials selection
– in-service performance
– deterioration
– economics

Semiconductors Composites
Biomaterials • consist of more than
• electrical properties
• implanted in human one material type
between conductors
body • designed to display a
and insulators
• compatible with body combination of
• electrical properties
tissues properties of each
can be precisely
controlled component
Nanomaterial product
Material of The Future
Smart materials are designed materials that
have one or more properties that can be
significantly changed in a controlled fashion by
external stimuli, such as stress, temperature,
moisture, pH, electric or magnetic fields
