Mechanical & Industrial Engrg 597MM - ST-Metamaterials

Structuring of materials at the micro-/nano-scale has become a standard method for creating optical, thermal, acoustic, and mechanical properties, which are not possible by traditional stochastic material processing. The new materials created by the deliberate control of their structures have been called ?metamaterials? and will play a critical role in the development of future high-performance materials. The aim of the course is to provide multidisciplinary knowledge for understanding metamaterials with selected applications. Since lectures will be given at undergraduate sophomore level, this course will be particularly useful for both undergraduate and graduate students who want to learn these latest advancements in materials science and engineering without special prerequisites.
