Program description
Content
Materials - both classic as well as novel - are the basis and the driving force for products and product innovations. The most important material-based industries in Germany, including automotive and engineering, chemical, power engineering, electrical and electronics as well as metal manufacturing and processing, generate annual sales of nearly one trillion euros and employ around five million people.
Materials scientists are developing entirely new materials concepts - for example in current key fields such as energy storage and conversion or structural lightweight construction - or they are improving existing materials and adapting them to the constantly changing requirements of global competition. With their expertise on the complex implication of structure, composition, processing steps and load and environmental influences on the performance and behavior of materials in practical use, they are also a link between design and production.
Due to the importance of material behavior for the structural design and processing of products, the study of materials has a strong engineering component. At the same time, the understanding of material behavior is based on the most recent insights in basic natural science subjects. For example, although modern high-performance steels are produced on a 1000-tonne scale, the trend is increasing towards the design of such materials and their processing steps based on model calculations based on quantum-physical principles covering the entire scale from atom to component.
Novel composite and hybrid materials that combine high strength and low weight with functional properties such as actuators or sensors are using current research results from the nanoscience. The development of biomaterials, which are increasingly important in health care, requires insights from medicine in addition to materials physical and chemical approaches. The broad interdisciplinary approach of materials science makes them a bridging discipline between the engineering and natural sciences.
The master’s program Materials Science (M.Sc.) - Multiscale Material Systems is addressed to bachelor graduates of engineering as well as physics or chemistry. With its baseline-oriented curriculum, taking into account both natural science and engineering aspects, the program provides an understanding of the fabrication, design, properties, and design principles of materials, from atomic structures and processes to component behavior.
The focus of the first year of study are the core topics: physics and chemistry of materials, methods in experiment, theory and cross-scale modeling, mechanical properties ranging from molecules to idealized monocrystalline states to real material, phase transitions and microstructure design as well as properties of functional materials. Specialization areas open up the fields of nano- and hybrid materials, technical materials, and material modeling. In the second year of study, participation in current research is the focus, with a study project on Modern Problems of Materials Science as well as the Master's Thesis.

Knowledge |
The Nontechnical Academic Programms (NTA) imparts skills that, in view of the TUHH’s training profile, professional engineering studies require but are not able to cover fully. Self-reliance, self-management, collaboration and professional and personnel management competences. The department implements these training objectives in its teaching architecture, in its teaching and learning arrangements, in teaching areas and by means of teaching offerings in which students can qualify by opting for specific competences and a competence level at the Bachelor’s or Master’s level. The teaching offerings are pooled in two different catalogues for nontechnical complementary courses. The Learning Architecture consists of a cross-disciplinarily study offering. The centrally designed teaching offering ensures that courses in the nontechnical academic programms follow the specific profiling of TUHH degree courses. The learning architecture demands and trains independent educational planning as regards the individual development of competences. It also provides orientation knowledge in the form of “profiles”. The subjects that can be studied in parallel throughout the student’s entire study program - if need be, it can be studied in one to two semesters. In view of the adaptation problems that individuals commonly face in their first semesters after making the transition from school to university and in order to encourage individually planned semesters abroad, there is no obligation to study these subjects in one or two specific semesters during the course of studies. Teaching and Learning Arrangements provide for students, separated into B.Sc. and M.Sc., to learn with and from each other across semesters. The challenge of dealing with interdisciplinarity and a variety of stages of learning in courses are part of the learning architecture and are deliberately encouraged in specific courses. Fields of Teaching are based on research findings from the academic disciplines cultural studies, social studies, arts, historical studies, communication studies, migration studies and sustainability research, and from engineering didactics. In addition, from the winter semester 2014/15 students on all Bachelor’s courses will have the opportunity to learn about business management and start-ups in a goal-oriented way. The fields of teaching are augmented by soft skills offers and a foreign language offer. Here, the focus is on encouraging goal-oriented communication skills, e.g. the skills required by outgoing engineers in international and intercultural situations. The Competence Level of the courses offered in this area is different as regards the basic training objective in the Bachelor’s and Master’s fields. These differences are reflected in the practical examples used, in content topics that refer to different professional application contexts, and in the higher scientific and theoretical level of abstraction in the B.Sc. This is also reflected in the different quality of soft skills, which relate to the different team positions and different group leadership functions of Bachelor’s and Master’s graduates in their future working life.

Admission Requirements | None |
Recommended Previous Knowledge | Fundamentals of technical mechanics (statics, strength of materials, beam bending), fundamentals of mechanical properties of materials (elasticity, plasticity), materials science (tensile testing, hardness testing, bending strength), programming (Python) |
Educational Objectives | After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results |
Professional Competence | |
Knowledge | The students are able to model a specimen/part using an FEM preprocessor, to mesh it and to apply boundary conditions and materials. They are able to establish 2D models (plain strain, axisymmetric) as well as 3D models and to solve these with ABAQUS. Further, they will learn how to implement contact, as e.g. needed for the simulation of nanoindentation or four point bending with rollers. With the help of Python the reading of the results and their processing will be automized. The students will be able to submit and analyze jobs in an automized way for building a data base. They can analyze such data bases with respect to underlying relationships using machine learning and test hypotheses in relation to uniqueness and completeness. |
Skills |
The students are able to address a given problem in a scientific approach by splitting it into subproblems and by gaining the required knowledge needed for solving each sub problem. They learn based on examples, how hypotheses are developed and how these can be verified or falsified using computer methods. In addition, the students learn how the results of the individual sub problems can be tested with regard to their correctness and how to discuss them scientificially, at one hand, and how the sum of all subresults are to be discussed in the context of the given problem and formulated hypotheses, on the other hand. A significant part of this work is the documentation in a written report, which is in style and structure comparable in all relevant elements to a scientific report. |
Personal Competence | |
Social Competence |
As the module is based on Problem Based Learning, the students will be able to work in small groups. This includes to discuss the content of the problem, to brainstorm, to work out hypotheses, prioritize them and to agree on those hypotheses and subproblems which shall be worked out in an organized way. Due to this, a significant part of the module relies on communication skills, organizational skills and time management. Finally, the ability to split a problem into the right subproblems and to put to gether the results from the subproblems for getting the answer of the big picture is an asset for efficient and effective problem solving in general. |
Autonomy | The acquisition of the necessary know-how and the solution of the subproblems is carried out individually. Due to this, the students are in the position to adopt new computer methods (here in particular Python programming, FE modeling, machine learning) and to expand those as far as necessary to solve the given task. Furthermore, the students learn to document their methods and results in a comprehensible manner and via the corrections to absorb feedback for continuously furthering the existing skills. |

This class will cover the principles of dislocation theory from a physical metallurgy perspective, providing a fundamental understanding of the relations between the strength and of crystalline solids and distributions of defects. We will review the concept of dislocations, defining terminology used, and providing an overview of important concepts (e.g. linear elasticity, stress-strain relations, and stress transformations) for theory development. We will develop the theory of dislocation plasticity through derived stress-strain fields, associated self-energies, and the induced forces on dislocations due to internal and externally applied stresses. Dislocation structure will be discussed, including core models, stacking faults, and dislocation arrays (including grain boundary descriptions). Mechanisms of dislocation multiplication and strengthening will be covered along with general principles of creep and strain rate sensitivity. Final topics will include non-FCC dislocations, emphasizing the differences in structure and corresponding implications on dislocation mobility and macroscopic mechanical behavior; and dislocations in finite volumes. |

Content |
The materials discussed in this lecture differ from „conventional“ ones due to their individual hierarchic microstructure. In conventional microstructure design, the morphology is adjusted, for instance, by thermal treatment and concurrent mechanical deformation. The material is continually and steadily optimized by small changes in structure or chemical composition, also in combination with self-organization processes (precipitation alloys, ceramic glasses, eutectic structures). The presented materials consist of functionalized elementary functional units based on polymers, ceramics, metals and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which are used to create macroscopic hierarchical material systems, whose characteristic lengths range from the nanometer to the centimeter scale. These elementary functional units are either core-shell structures or cavities in metals created by alloy corrosion and subsequent polymer filling. Three classes of material systems will be presented: First, hierarchically structured ceramic/metal-polymer material systems similar to naturally occurring examples, namely nacre (1 hierarchical level), enamel (3 hierarchical levels) and bone (5 hierarchical levels) will be discussed. Starting with an elementary functional unit consisting of ceramic nanoparticles with a polymeric coating, a material is created in which on each hierarchical level, “hard” particles, made of the respective lower hierarchical level, are present in a soft polymer background. The resulting core-shell structure on each hierarchical level is the fundamental difference compared to a compound material made of rigid interpenetrating ceramic or metallic networks. The second material system is based on nanoporous gold, which acts as a prototypical material for new components in light weight construction with simultaneous actuator properties. Their production and resulting length-scale specific mechanical properties will be explained. Furthermore, related scale-spanning theoretical models for their mechanical behavior will be introduced. This covers the entire scale from the electronic structure on the atomic level up to centimeter-sized macroscopic samples. The third material system discussed in the lecture are novel hierarchical nanostructured materials based on thermally stable ceramics and metals for high-temperature photonics with potential use in thermophotovoltaic systems (TPVs) and thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). Direct and inverted 3D-photonic crystal structures (PhCs) as well as novel optically hyperbolic media, in particular, are worthwhile noting. Due to their periodicity and diffraction index contrast, PhCs exhibit a photonic band structure, characterized by photonic band gaps, areas of particularly high photonic densities of states and special dispersion relations. The presented properties are to be used to reflect thermal radiation in TBCs in a strong and directed manner, as well as to link radiation effectively and efficiently in TPVs. |

The students receive the assignment in the form of a material design for test bodies made of fibre composites. Technical and normative requirements are listed in the assignment, all other required information comes from the lectures and exercises or the respective documents (electronically and in conversation). The procedure is specified in a milestone plan and enables the students to plan subtasks and thus work continuously. At the end of the project, different test specimens were tested in tensile or bending tests. In the individual project meetings, the conception (discussion of requirements and risks) is scrutinised. The calculations are analysed, the production methods are evaluated and determined. Materials are selected and the test specimens are manufactured according to standards. The quality and mechanical properties are checked and classified. At the end, a final report is prepared and the results are presented to all participants in the form of a presentation and discussed. |

Basics of mechanics as taught,
e.g., in the modules Engineering Mechanics I and Engineering Mechanics II at TUHH (forces and moments, stress, linear strain,
free-body principle, linear-elastic constitutive laws, strain energy); basics of mathematics as taught,
e.g., in the modules Mathematics I and Mathematics II at TUHH |
Educational Objectives | After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results |
Professional Competence | |
Knowledge |
The students understand the theoretical foundations of anisotropic elasticity, viscoelasticity and elasto-plasticity in the realm of three-dimensional (linear) continuum mechanics. In the area of anisotropic elasticity, they know the concept of material symmetry and its application in orthotropic, transversely isotropic and isotropic materials. They understand the concept of stiffness and compliance and how both can be characterized by appropriate parameters. Moreover, the students understand viscoelasticity both in the time and frequency domain using the concepts of relaxation modulus, creep modulus, storage modulus and loss modulus. In the area of elasto-plasticity, the students know the concept of yield stress or (in higher dimensions) yield surface and of plastic potential. Additionally, the know the concepts of ideal plasticity, hardening and weakening. Moreover, they know von-Mises plasticity as a specific model of elasto-plasticity. |
Skills | The students can independently identify and solve problems in the area of materials modeling and acquire the knowledge to do so. This holds in particular for the area fo anisotropically elastic, viscoelastic and elasto-plastic material behavior. In these areas, the students can independently develop models for complex material behavior. To this end, they have the ability to read and understand relevant literature and identify the relevant results reported there. Moreover, they can implement models which they developed or found in the literature in computational software (e.g., based on the finite element method) and use it for practical calculations. |
Personal Competence | |
Social Competence |
The students are able to develop constitutive models for materials and present
them to specialists. Moreover, they have the ability to discuss challenging problems of materials modeling with experts using the proper terminoloy, to identify and ask critical questions in such discussions and to identify and discuss potential caveats in models presented to them. |
Autonomy |
The students have the ability to independently develop abstract models that allow them to classify observed phenomena within an more general abstract framework and to predict their further evolution. Moreover, the students understand the advantages but also limitations of mathematical models and can thus independently decide when and to which extent they make sense as a basis for decisions. |

Module M1150: Continuum Mechanics |
||||||||||||
Courses | ||||||||||||
|
Module Responsible | Prof. Christian Cyron |
Admission Requirements | None |
Recommended Previous Knowledge |
Basics of mechanics as taught, e.g., in the modules Engineering Mechanics I and Engineering Mechanics II at TUHH (forces and moments, stress, linear strain, free-body principle, linear-elastic constitutive laws, strain energy); basics of mathematics as taught, e.g., in the modules Mathematics I and Mathematics II at TUHH |
Educational Objectives | After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results |
Professional Competence | |
Knowledge |
In this module, students learn the fundamental concepts of nonlinear continuum mechanics. This theory enables students to describe arbitrary deformations of continuous bodies (solid, liquid or gaseous) under arbitrary loads. The module is a continuation of the basic module Engineering Mechanics II (elastostatics), the limiting assumptions (isotropic, linear-elastic material behavior, small deformations, simple geometries) of which are successively eliminated. First, the students learn the necessary fundamentals of tensor calculus. Based on this, the description of the deformations / strains of arbitrarily deformable bodies is dealt with. The students learn the mathematical formalism for characterizing the stress state of a body and for formulating the balance equations for mass, momentum, energy and entropy in various forms. Furthermore, the students know which constitutive assumptions have to be made for modeling the material behavior of a mechanical body.
|
Skills |
The students can set up balance laws and apply basics of deformation theory to specific aspects, both in applied contexts as in research contexts. |
Personal Competence | |
Social Competence |
The students are able to develop solutions also for complex problems of solid mechanics, to present them to specialists in written form and to develop ideas further. |
Autonomy |
The students are able to assess their own strengths and weaknesses. They can independently and on their own identify and solve problems in the area of continuum mechanics and acquire the knowledge required to this end. |

Content |
Continuum mechanics is a general theory to describe the effect of
mechanical forces on continuous mechanical (both solid and fluid)
bodies. An important part of continuum mechanics is the mathematical
description of strains and stresses as well as the stress-strain
response of continuous mechanical bodies. The lecture continuum
mechanics builds on the foundations tought in the lecture Engineering
Mechanics II (Elastostatics) but extends them significantly. While in
the lecture Engineering Mechanics II (Elastostatics) the focus was by
and large limited to small deformations of simple bodies under simple
loading, the lecture continuum mechanics introduces a general
mathematical framework to deal with arbitrarily shaped bodies under
arbitrary loading undergoing very general kinds of deformations. This
lecture focuses primarily on theoretical aspects of continuum mechanics
but its content is key to numerous applications in modern engineering, for example, in production, automotive, and biomedical engineering. The lecture covers:

Content |
Biological materials are omnipresent in the world around us. They are the main constituents in plant and animal bodies and have a diversity of functions. A fundamental function is obviously mechanical providing protection and support for the body. But biological materials may also serve as ion reservoirs (bone is a typical example), as chemical barriers (like cell membranes), have catalytic function (such as enzymes), transfer chemical into kinetic energy (such as the muscle), etc.This lecture will focus on materials with a primarily (passive) mechanical function: cellulose tissues (such as wood), collagen tissues (such as tendon or cornea), mineralized tissues (such as bone, dentin and glass sponges). The main goal is to give an introduction to the current knowledge of the structure in these materials and how these structures relate to their (mostly mechanical) functions. |
