Courses

Phase transformations

This course is an introduction to the thermodynamics and crystallography liquid-solid and solid-solid phase transformations. It is essentially focused on metallic materials, but will occasionally make extensions to ceramics and rocks.

Crystallography of structural phase transformations

The microstructure of many alloys and ceramics are constituted of very fine intricate domains (variants) created by diffusive or displacive phase transformations. The course introduces the crystallographic tools required to define, calculate and predict the different configurations of variants.
