TLP Library
Teaching and learning packages (TLPs) are self-contained, interactive resources, each focusing on one area of Materials Science.
Despite undergoing a process to update our older TLPs over the last year or more, many of our TLPs still contain Flash animations. These are highlighted in the list below (
). Unfortunately with Flash being End-Of-Life they no longer work. Please be reassured that we are continuing the process over the coming month. Any TLPs listed below that do not have a Flash animation tag either have no animations within them or the animations have been created using HTML5 (
). We have found that often the HTML5 animations render better in Microsoft Edge, so if your favourite browser does not work very well with them, please try an alternative.

Currently showing 3 TLPs
Having the following tags:
Casting
This TLP introduces a number of important processes through which metallic items can be fabricated from molten metal. As well as detailing the practical aspects of these manufacturing processes, attention is given to the important parameters which determine the microstructure of the finished items.
The Jominy End Quench Test
Discusses the aims, method and use of results of a test for the hardenability of steel.
Microstructural Examination
This teaching and learning package (TLP) looks at how what we see in micrographs relates to equilibrium phase diagrams and cooling routes for alloy systems.
