Mechanical metallurgy deals with different behavior and response of metals based on applied forces. These forces may arise from the use of the metals as a member or part of a structure or machine. Hence it is essential to know about limiting values that can be withstood without failure.

The aim of this e-learning module from Tata Steel Digie-Shala is to illustrate the mechanical behavior of metallic materials, under different conditions. By the end of this course, students will have the knowledge and ability to select the material and the processing conditions more suitable for the design and construction of reliable mechanical components.
