[@surfboardtrough7742]

@@hewaadamini8388 These comments that say a KZbin video taught them more than X years of college or covered 90% of their degree are way too hyperbolic.

You could turn a deaf, blind and dumb dog into the greatest physicist of all time. Covering material like this with this level of efficiency, clarity and immersion is nothing short of an exquisite form of art. You, my friend, deserve a lot more credit than you get.

[@FotisTsiolis]

As a metallurgical and materials engineer, I have to say that your video is a must-watch for someone interested in the field of physical metallurgy. That was a very concise summary of such a broad field of engineering that touched upon all the basics in such a short period of time. I have to admit that I took the same approach of presenting the basics last year, as an introduction to my texture of metallic materials presentation to my MSc. peers, but god I wished I had such great animations. Well done and keep up your terrific work!

[@alphacenter7366]

do you get job with this degree "Material enginnering"?

[@FotisTsiolis]

Of course you do get to work as a Materials Engineer in various industrial or research positions. The job offers may be less than let's say mechanical or electrical engineering but the market needs metallurgists and materials engineers more than ever on its quest for sustainability.

I learned rural blacksmithing when I was a youth, so it's really neat to see the reasons down to the molecular level the quenching and tempering we did. Based on the last diagram, I guess we were aiming for a mix of austenite and cementite for some things, and ferrite and cementite for others, so interesting!

Get a good understanding of all his videos and you’ll have a much easier time understanding and filling in the blanks in engineering school. Unfortunately, most topics are taught in a manner where a concept is introduced and then the entire depth of the topic is discussed before you move on. It’s far better to expose yourself to the breadth of concepts first and drill down after you understand the global framework of concepts.

I'm thrilled that you are able to present so much information in such a short time. This is precisely the level of detail I think introductions to subjects should be made. It can often be daunting to pick up a textbook in order to quickly get an idea of the subject because the textbooks often go immediately to the final level of detail without providing any kind of overview first. Here you are teaching the basic ideas of perhaps a whole textbook in one 18 minute video. Keep up your amazing work!

You have made it possible to understand that b/c the carbon atom is smaller than the iron atom...I can see where the carbon atom fits in. This is huge...Thank you so so much. This helps my understanding of metals. I know that the stainless steel family warps so much from welding. This has to be b/c the grains of the chrome & nickle are so close together. The heat from a weld has a hard time "leaving". Take aluminum...the heat from a weld travels away from the heated area fast (b/c) the alum. grains are not as close together. Still, with alum there can be warping, have to use restrictive heat techniques. The carbon steel group...about inbetween s/s & alum. It warps if restrictive steps are not taken. Not as much warping as s/s. Great pics of what you explain...Thank you, Pete

[@webx135]

The corrosion resistance mechanism is pretty cool. Let me know if I'm wrong when I describe this. Iron oxidizes as we all know in to rust. Rust doesn't repel water especially well, so iron deeper and deeper down continues to oxidize. Chromium still oxidizes as well. However, its oxides are hydrophobic, so only the outermost layer can oxidize, protecting the rest of the metal from oxidation. When you combine iron and chromium, there may be some iron that oxidizes, but because it passes through, it can still oxidize the chromium, creating a waterproof layer that protects both the chromium and iron inside from further oxidation. But IIRC, chromium oxidizes faster, so it creates its protective layer before much of the iron can oxidize in the first place. So it isn't that stainless steel doesn't oxidize, it's that its oxidation state is waterproof. It creates its own waterproof layer.

[@jackorlove4055]

Brass mostly sucks to machine. If you're just flycutting or doing lathe stuff it's like butter, but if you have to drill or grind it, oh my God it can be a nightmare. It heats up so fast and expands so keeping tolerance can be tricky, it isn't magnetic so you can't slap it on a grinder and have to set it up in a little vise and even then you need to keep it super cool, it gums up like aluminum on drills and grinding wheels But yeah if you're just profiling or milling it's pretty nice. That is often not the case though in my experience. I guess i would say Brass is a fairly deceptive metal when it comes to machining. You'd think it'd be super duper easy, but it can really kick you in the nuts. By the way amazing video :)

Have to say these videos are the best tutorial videos in engineering. I had the same motivation to create similar videos myself last year but seems unable to create such beautiful videos as these. A few thoughts in my mind before I watch all the videos: 1. Thermodynamics and heat transfer also interesting and fundamental in engineering. (The physics of heat transfer, conduction,radiation. What is Carnot cycle, etc. 2. Fluid mechanics may add dimensionless analysis. 3. General introduction of Fracture mechanics. Again, thank you for your awesome work!
