Mechanics and Science of Materials

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Mechanics and Science of Materials

By Dr. Joshua Paul Steimel

This text serves to provide a brief overview of some of the myriad of topics available for study in the field of Materials Science. This is by no means a comprehensive compilation of Materials Science and Engineering topics but is instead meant as an introduction to the topic for entry-level undergraduates who want to pursue a career studying materials.

The information presented in this OER would not have been possible without the outpouring support from many family members, faculty, colleagues, and friends. In particular I would like to point out Professor Sam Allen, Krystyn VanVliet, Michael Cima, Alfredo Alexander-Katz, Reid Van Lehn,and Yoda Patta.

I hope that you find this to be helpful!!
