Lecture
Thermal Properties of Materials
Description
This lecture covers the effect of temperature on the module, thermal diffusion, thermal expansion, thermomechanical constraints, and specific heat in materials. It explains how temperature changes dimensions and properties, leading to thermal expansion in solids and the generation of deformations and stresses. The instructor discusses practical consequences, such as the thermal circuit breaker by bimetallic strip and the influence of temperature on mechanical properties like the modulus of elasticity.
