Course unit description
This curricular unit aims to put students in contact with the main concepts related to materials and processes, providing an integrated vision of its applicability in different areas. The assumed perspective is the multidisciplinary view of materials and processes, accompanied by the transmission of theoretical fundamentals with practical exemplification and skills training.
Objectives and expected learning outcomes
Students who successfully complete this course unit will be able to: 1:
1. identify the different material types and their properties, manufacturing processes and associated technologies.
2. Understand the operative sequence of a transformation process by presenting a process diagram and identify bottlenecks and production bottlenecks in order to analyze and improve the process flow.
3. Possess specialized knowledge of the different production processes.
4. Have specialized knowledge of technology, mechanics and materials applied to industrial processes.
Skills to be developed
1. Identify and prepare the production planning and scheduling
2. Develop the production plan
3. Collaborate in the implementation of integrated management systems
4. Demonstrate capacity for permanent update, both at technical and technological level
5. Adapt to the evolution of technologies and materials
1. Materials
1.1 Classes of materials: metals, ceramics, polymers, composites
1.2 Physical, mechanical, thermal and other properties
1.3. selection of materials: economic and environmental aspects
2. Manufacturing processes in manufacturing industries
2.1 Technologies to support product development: casting, plastics and composites
2.2 Technologies to support product development: forming and machining
2.3 Technologies to support product development: joining and assembling

The assignments must be submitted through the ELearning platform according to the deadline dates defined in the PIA, using the Turnitin database available on the ELearning platform.
Under the terms of the General Regulation:
a) The effective attendance of students in classes will be subject to registration and, if the number of absences per student exceeds 30% of the total number of contact sessions foreseen for each curricular unit, they will be automatically transferred to the final assessment of the regular season;
b) A minimum mark of 7.5 points is required in the written tests and in the defined assessment elements;
c) In case the student misses or obtains a grade lower than 7.5 in the tests or in the elements of evaluation referred to in the previous number, he/she will automatically be transferred to the final evaluation of the regular season;
d) If the student misses or obtains a mark of less than 7.5 in the second written test (taken on the same date as the final written test of the regular season) he/she may request registration for assessment in the appeal season;
e) All written academic work provided for assessment (reports, case studies, etc.) must be submitted in the Turnitin database, available on the ISAG E-Learning platform, with a similarity rate of up to 30% being acceptable.
Final Exam: 100%.
The teaching methodology assumes theoretical and practical characteristics appropriate to the nature of the subjects taught and the objectives of the course unit. It is encouraged the spirit of reflection and discovery in students as a way to truly obtain qualifications both in the assimilation of theoretical knowledge and the ability to apply it to practical situations. In this way the defined objectives will be achieved, both in terms of understanding the concepts and in terms of the capacity for their practical application.
