Nanomechanics of Materials and Biomaterials
3.052 · Materials Science and Engineering · Undergraduate · Spring 2007
Prof. Christine Ortiz
This course focuses on the latest scientific developments and discoveries in the field of nanomechanics, the study of forces and motion on extremely tiny (10<sup>\-9</sup> m) areas of synthetic and biological materials and structures. At this level, mechanical properties are intimately related to chemistry, physics, and quantum mechanics. Most lectures will consist of a theoretical component that will then be compared to recent experimental data (case studies) in the literature. The course begi…
