Preview 2 out of 15 pages

These MEGR 3161 – Engineering Materials Lecture Notes provide a complete, semester‑long reference for the 2025–2026 study year at UNC Charlotte. The document covers every major topic taught in the course, including crystallographic directions, Miller indices, crystal structures (FCC, BCC, HCP), atomic packing factor (APF), theoretical density, X‑ray diffraction (XRD), crystal defects, dislocations, grain boundaries, microscopy methods, stress–strain behavior, mechanical properties, true stress/strain, and safety factor calculations. Each section is clearly structured and supported by detailed diagrams and fully worked examples that mirror the style of real MEGR exam problems. These notes are ideal for lecture reinforcement, homework support, and exam preparation, giving students a reliable and comprehensive resource for mastering Engineering Materials.
