Knowledge of superalloys is key to designing critical components used in the most demanding applications. This course provides an in-depth look at nickel-, cobalt-, and iron-based superalloys — materials known for their superior mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and surface stability at high temperatures. Topics include alloy properties and metallurgy, microstructure, melting, casting, forging, heat treatment, oxidation and hot corrosion behavior, and protective coatings. The course concludes with a look at emerging technologies in the field.
The book, Superalloys: A Technical Guide, by Matthew J. Donachie and Stephen J. Donachie, is provided with the course.
