Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
Select an appropriate manufacturing process.
Take into account manufacturing constraints (cost, quality, schedule) when designing a product; understand the role of materials in Manufacturing processes and the effect of processes on the mechanical properties of manufactured parts.
Analyze the advantages and disadvantages associated with additive manufacturing.
Understand the role of materials in manufacturing processes and the effect of processes on the mechanical properties of manufactured parts.
Understand the importance of manufacturing and the role of the Engineer in the climate and environmental transitions of the field.
Establish a link between the structure of the main metallic alloys and their properties (mechanical, physical, chemical) to justify their practical applications; Propose and/or justify the application of an adequate heat treatment to modify the mechanical properties of the metallic alloys studied.
The main objective is to provide students with the necessary information to understand metallography and physical metallurgy applied to metallic alloys (carbon and stainless steels, ferrous cast iron, titanium alloys, cast and wrought magnesium and aluminum alloys). The improvement of mechanical properties by realizing various heat treatments is detailed. Corrosion resistance is also studied. A secondary objective is to bring the students to consider the sustainability aspect in their choice of materials.
UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance
The course gives an overview of manufacturing processes of mechanical products in metals, as well as additive manufacturing, introduces the language of manufacturing and proposes practical lessons. The aim is also to give to the students the necessary information to understand the metallography and the physical metallurgy applied to metal alloys (steels, cast iron, cast and wrought aluminium alloys, titanium alloys). The improvement of the mechanical properties by various heat treatments is also studied.
The course is given by academics who conduct research in the field of manufacturing technology and, in the same time, maintain close links with industrial companies, providing education to the forefront of technological and industrial requirements.
See the AA for the details about each AA.
Prior Experience
Fundamentals of physics; fundamentals of materials, technical drawing.
Type(s) and mode(s) of Q1 UE assessment
Q1 UE Assessment Comments
I-META-201: Examination on the whole course (100% of the AA note). Oral exam with written preparation; duration: about 45 min of written preparation on paper + about 30 min of oral presentation.
I-GMEC-001 et I-GMEC-002: Oral examination without written preparation on all of the material covered in the oral course (100% of the AA mark). Duration: 25 minutes. Order of examination according to a schedule communicated before the exam. No materials or resources are required. A pen and paper are recommended to facilitate answers based on diagrams and drawings, where appropriate. Dress and presentation should be appropriate for an oral examination.
The success of the UE is conditioned by a minimum score of 08/20 for each AA which constitutes it.
Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q1 UE assessment
If each AA > 8/20: UE = 0,7333.(I-GMEC-001 and I-GMEC-002) + 0,2667.I-META-101
If one AA < 8/20: UE = this AA
If each AA < 8/20: UE = 0,7333.(I-GMEC-001 abd I-GMEC-002) + 0,2667.I-META-101
