Objectives
The objectives of this AF are to provide students with methodological inputs on the selection of materials. This requires a good knowledge of the properties of the materials (some common core reminders are given) and needs setting up selection criteria, applied on a materials database. The Granta EduPack material selection software will be presented and used. The course will be complemented by presentations by industry speakers on the selection of materials related to design, life cycle assessment and the environmental impact of products and materials. A work in autonomy in group will be realized on a subject chosen by the students.
