Lecture

Thermophysical Properties: Expansion, Moduli, and Vacancies

Description

This lecture delves into thermophysical properties such as thermal expansion, the Grüneisen parameter, and the formation of thermal vacancies in metals. It explores the relation between specific heat and coefficient of thermal expansion, the Grüneisen parameter's role in material properties, and the impact of temperature on elastic moduli. Additionally, it discusses the measurement of thermal vacancies and their significance in self-diffusion and high-temperature creep resistance.
