Program description
Content
Materials - both classic as well as novel - are the basis and the driving force for products and productinnovations. The most important material-based industries in Germany, including automotive and engineering,chemical, power engineering, electrical and electronics as well as metal manufacturing and processing,generate annual sales of nearly one trillion euros and employ around five million people.
Materials scientists are developing entirely new materials concepts - for example in current key fields such asenergy storage and conversion or structural lightweight construction - or they are improving existing materialsand adapting them to the constantly changing requirements of global competition. With their expertise on thecomplex implication of structure, composition, processing steps and load and environmental influences on theperformance and behavior of materials in practical use, they are also a link between design and production.
Due to the importance of material behavior for the structural design and processing of products, the study ofmaterials has a strong engineering component. At the same time, the understanding of material behavior isbased on the most recent insights in basic natural science subjects. For example, although modern high-performance steels are produced on a 1000-tonne scale, the trend is increasing towards the design of suchmaterials and their processing steps based on model calculations based on quantum-physical principlescovering the entire scale from atom to component.
Novel composite and hybrid materials that combine high strength and low weight with functional properties suchas actuators or sensors are using current research results from the nanoscience. The development ofbiomaterials, which are increasingly important in health care, requires insights from medicine in addition tomaterials physical and chemical approaches. The broad interdisciplinary approach of materials science makesthem a bridging discipline between the engineering and natural sciences.
The master’s program Materials Science (M.Sc.) - Multiscale Material Systems is addressed to bachelorgraduates of engineering as well as physics or chemistry. With its baseline-oriented curriculum, taking intoaccount both natural science and engineering aspects, the program provides an understanding of thefabrication, design, properties, and design principles of materials, from atomic structures and processes tocomponent behavior.
The focus of the first year of study are the core topics: physics and chemistry of materials, methods inexperiment, theory and cross-scale modeling, mechanical properties ranging from molecules to idealizedmonocrystalline states to real material, phase transitions and microstructure design as well as properties offunctional materials. Specialization areas open up the fields of nano- and hybrid materials, technical materials,and material modeling. In the second year of study, participation in current research is the focus, with a studyproject on Modern Problems of Materials Science as well as the Master's Thesis.

The Nontechnical Academic Programms (NTA)
imparts skills that, in view of the TUHH’s training profile, professional engineering studiesrequire but are not able to cover fully. Self-reliance, self-management, collaboration andprofessional and personnel management competences. The department implements thesetraining objectives in its teaching architecture, in its teaching and learning arrangements, inteaching areas and by means of teaching offerings in which students can qualify by opting forspecific competences and a competence level at the Bachelor’s or Master’s level. Theteaching offerings are pooled in two different catalogues for nontechnical complementarycourses.
The Learning Architecture
consists of a cross-disciplinarily study offering. The centrally designed teaching offeringensures that courses in the nontechnical academic programms follow the specific profiling ofTUHH degree courses.
The learning architecture demands and trains independent educational planning as regardsthe individual development of competences. It also provides orientation knowledge in the formof “profiles”.
The subjects that can be studied in parallel throughout the student’s entire study program - ifneed be, it can be studied in one to two semesters. In view of the adaptation problems thatindividuals commonly face in their first semesters after making the transition from school touniversity and in order to encourage individually planned semesters abroad, there is noobligation to study these subjects in one or two specific semesters during the course ofstudies.
Teaching and Learning Arrangements
provide for students, separated into B.Sc. and M.Sc., to learn with and from each other acrosssemesters. The challenge of dealing with interdisciplinarity and a variety of stages of learningin courses are part of the learning architecture and are deliberately encouraged in specificcourses.
Fields of Teaching
are based on research findings from the academic disciplines cultural studies, social studies,arts, historical studies, communication studies, migration studies and sustainability research,and from engineering didactics. In addition, from the winter semester 2014/15 students on allBachelor’s courses will have the opportunity to learn about business management and start-ups in a goal-oriented way.
The fields of teaching are augmented by soft skills offers and a foreign language offer. Here,the focus is on encouraging goal-oriented communication skills, e.g. the skills required byoutgoing engineers in international and intercultural situations.
The Competence Level
[7]
Module Manual M.Sc. "Materials Science"
of the courses offered in this area is different as regards the basic training objective in theBachelor’s and Master’s fields. These differences are reflected in the practical examples used,in content topics that refer to different professional application contexts, and in the higherscientific and theoretical level of abstraction in the B.Sc.
This is also reflected in the different quality of soft skills, which relate to the different teampositions and different group leadership functions of Bachelor’s and Master’s graduates intheir future working life.

Content
The materials discussed in this lecture differ from „conventional“ ones due to their individualhierarchic microstructure. In conventional microstructure design, the morphology is adjusted,for instance, by thermal treatment and concurrent mechanical deformation. The material iscontinually and steadily optimized by small changes in structure or chemical composition, alsoin combination with self-organization processes (precipitation alloys, ceramic glasses, eutecticstructures).
The presented materials consist of functionalized elementary functional units based onpolymers, ceramics, metals and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which are used to createmacroscopic hierarchical material systems, whose characteristic lengths range from thenanometer to the centimeter scale. These elementary functional units are either core-shellstructures or cavities in metals created by alloy corrosion and subsequent polymer filling.
Three classes of material systems will be presented:
First, hierarchically structured ceramic/metal-polymer material systems similar to naturallyoccurring examples, namely nacre (1 hierarchical level), enamel (3 hierarchical levels) andbone (5 hierarchical levels) will be discussed. Starting with an elementary functional unitconsisting of ceramic nanoparticles with a polymeric coating, a material is created in which oneach hierarchical level, “hard” particles, made of the respective lower hierarchical level, arepresent in a soft polymer background. The resulting core-shell structure on each hierarchicallevel is the fundamental difference compared to a compound material made of rigidinterpenetrating ceramic or metallic networks.
The second material system is based on nanoporous gold, which acts as a prototypicalmaterial for new components in light weight construction with simultaneous actuatorproperties. Their production and resulting length-scale specific mechanical properties will beexplained. Furthermore, related scale-spanning theoretical models for their mechanicalbehavior will be introduced. This covers the entire scale from the electronic structure on theatomic level up to centimeter-sized macroscopic samples.
The third material system discussed in the lecture are novel hierarchical nanostructuredmaterials based on thermally stable ceramics and metals for high-temperature photonics withpotential use in thermophotovoltaic systems (TPVs) and thermal barrier coatings (TBCs).Direct and inverted 3D-photonic crystal structures (PhCs) as well as novel optically hyperbolicmedia, in particular, are worthwhile noting. Due to their periodicity and diffraction indexcontrast, PhCs exhibit a photonic band structure, characterized by photonic band gaps, areasof particularly high photonic densities of states and special dispersion relations. Thepresented properties are to be used to reflect thermal radiation in TBCs in a strong anddirected manner, as well as to link radiation effectively and efficiently in TPVs.

Content
This class will cover the principles of dislocation theory from a physical metallurgyperspective, providing a fundamental understanding of the relations between the strength andof crystalline solids and distributions of defects.
We will review the concept of dislocations, defining terminology used, and providing anoverview of important concepts (e.g. linear elasticity, stress-strain relations, and stresstransformations) for theory development. We will develop the theory of dislocation plasticitythrough derived stress-strain fields, associated self-energies, and the induced forces ondislocations due to internal and externally applied stresses. Dislocation structure will bediscussed, including core models, stacking faults, and dislocation arrays (including grainboundary descriptions). Mechanisms of dislocation multiplication and strengthening will becovered along with general principles of creep and strain rate sensitivity. Final topics willinclude non-FCC dislocations, emphasizing the differences in structure and correspondingimplications on dislocation mobility and macroscopic mechanical behavior; and dislocationsin finite volumes.

Students get the task in the form of a customer request for the development and production ofa MTB handlebar made of fiber composites. In the task technical and normative requirements(standards) are given, all other required information come from the lectures and tutorials, andthe respective documents (electronically and in conversation). The procedure is to specify in a milestone schedule and allows students to plan tasks and towork continuously. At project end, each group has a made handlebar with approved quality. In each project meeting the design (discussion of the requirements and risks) are discussed.The calculations are analyzed, evaluated and established manufacturing methods areselected. Materials are selected bar will be produced. The quality and the mechanicalproperties are checked. At the end of the final report created (compilation of the results for the"customers").After the test during the "customer / supplier conversation" there is a mutual feedback-talk("lessons learned") in order to ensure the continuous improvement.

Content
Biological materials are omnipresent in the world around us. They are the main constituents inplant and animal bodies and have a diversity of functions. A fundamental function is obviouslymechanical providing protection and support for the body. But biological materials may alsoserve as ion reservoirs (bone is a typical example), as chemical barriers (like cellmembranes), have catalytic function (such as enzymes), transfer chemical into kinetic energy(such as the muscle), etc.This lecture will focus on materials with a primarily (passive)mechanical function: cellulose tissues (such as wood), collagen tissues (such as tendon orcornea), mineralized tissues (such as bone, dentin and glass sponges). The main goal is togive an introduction to the current knowledge of the structure in these materials and how thesestructures relate to their (mostly mechanical) functions.
