What will you learn?
This ebook hopefully will prove an invaluable guide to a ‘learner of materials science & engineering’
(Credits, Syllabus, Marks… are just incidental!)

A teacher’s job is to uncover and not cover the syllabus”- Richard M Felder
Guidelines to Readers
The contents have been developed such that most of the material is in the form of figures, flow charts, video graphics
and less is in the form of text. Hence, instead of saying happy reading we wish you happy viewing!
The course contents are extensive in some places and instructors may want to reduce the
content in some topics.
Instructors may download the appropriate files and delete the portion not needed. This will
help tailor the contents for any specific syllabus or need.
(I.e. you can copy left, right and centre!!).
If you still want to cite you can use the following:

Any feedback or comments on improvement from instructors and students alike would be
highly appreciated (anandh@iitk.ac.in).
Kindly take time out ask yourself and me questions: “a well phrased question is half the
answer in itself”.

Acknowledgments MHRD is acknowledged for funding for the project via the NMEICT.
I thank Prof. Rajesh Prasad (Applied Mechanics, IIT Delhi) for his ‘fundas’ and
teaching style.
I thank all my students who have motivated me to make continuous improvement to
the book. [Kindly help by pointing out mistakes and suggestions for improvement].
I am sincerely indebted to all the feedback, queries, encouragement and kudos* I have
received from across the globe (few are as below).
Please accept my congrads for your excellent lectures notes provided in your webpage. I have addressed them to students
who need rich and training metallurgical materials. I was wondering if you intend to add the lecture notes on Dislocations
and Plasticity topic? if not, any chance that I can have the same? Good luck,
Ahmad Rezaeian, Research Associate at McGill University in Canada.
I found your talk "Voids in crystals" in the internet and it seems impressive for me. Is it possible to get the referred
movies?
Frank Rietz, University Magdeburg & Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization Göttingen, Germany.
I teach an undergraduate course in Materials Science at Vanderbilt University. I ran into a powerpoint of yours that
describes octahedral and tetrahedral voids. I would be grateful if I may use them ONLY for the edification of my students.

My name is Shachar Richter from Tel Aviv University, I am teaching a surface science course and would like to ask you
to use one of your ppt files related to 2D Bravis lattices for this course, Best
Shachar, Center for Nano Science and Nanotechnology, Tel Aviv University, Tel-Aviv, Israel.
This past semester, I used a couple slides from your webpage as a tutorial. Namely, the ones on diffusion and crystal
structures. They were really helpful for my teaching practices. Thank you for putting efforts into making them. I am sure
a lot of students all over the world are finding them helpful. Yours sincerely,
