| Course Description |
| Introduction and fundamentals of modelling and simulation, Mathematical and physical basis of modelling, methodology,
Examples of metallurgical and materials processes, Mass and energy balances, and simultaneous solutions, in-class
demonstration of modelling software, Modeling and Simulation in Materials Science, Application of Multiscale Modeling,
Application of the methodology for materials behavior and processing problems, Modeling of grain growth and microstructure in
polycrystalline materials, Modeling of structural materials, Description of certain extractive metallurgical processes (roasting,
smelting, leaching, precipitation, electrolysis, refining, etc.) and steps of their mathematical modelling, Concepts of kinetics,
batch, and continuous processes in extractive metallurgy, Determining the effect of controlling parameters, such as particle size,
temperature, concentration, pressure, gas/liquid/solid flow rate, stirring speed, current density, etc., and mathematical modelling
thereof. Assigning these parameters to the student groups as term projects, Hands-on experimenting of modelling software in
the computer-lab to investigate the effect of these parameters, individually assigned to the groups of students, Building the
models of metallurgical processes, investigated under the light of related controlling parameters, their simulation with modelling
software, in-class presentation of these models by the student groups to their classmates. |
