HI- TRANSFER of HEAT ENERGY
Radiation is the mode of tran,sport of,heat energy through vacuum and the empty space
between moU~cules. It depends on electromagnetic waves such as visible light, infrared, and
ultraviolt~t radiation." ,

(c) Sound waves, Intensity, Intensity level and Doppler Effect
t Sound waves are compressional waves ill a material medium such as air, water, or stcel.
[~ When the compressions and rarefactions of the waves strikes the eardrum, they result in the
sensation of sound, provided the frequency of the waves is between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, Speed
of sound in air at OoC is 331 mlsec or 1,087 ftIsec, The speed .increases with temperature about
~ 0.6 m/sec or 2 ft/sec each °C rise, More precisely:

The Quanta of Radiation: All electromagnetic waves, including light, have a dual nature. When
traveling through space, they act like waves to give rise to interference and diffraction effects. But
when electromagnetic radiation interacts with atoms and molecules, the beam acts like a stream of

&ENGIN'EERING
The discipline of material scieFJce inyolv~s inV"~stigati~g!the relationships that exists

CLASSIFICATION of MATERIALS
Solid materials have been conveniently grouped 'into three basic classifications: metal,
ceramics, and polymers. This scheme is based primarily on the chemical makeup and atomic
structure, and most materials falls into one distinct grouping or another, although there are some
intermediates. .
(A) METALS
Metallic materials are normally combinations of metallic clements. Metals are
extremely good conductors of electricity and heat and are not transparent to visible light.
Furthermore, metals are quite strong, yet deformable, which accounts for their extcnsive
use in structural applications-
(B) CERAMICS
Ceramics are compounds between metaJiic and nonmetallic elements; they are most
frequently oxides, nitrides, and carbides These include ceramics that are composed of
clay minerals, cement and glass. These materials are typically insulative to the passage
of electricity and heat, and are more resistant to high temperatures and harsh environment
"than metals and polymers. With regards to mechanical behavior, ceramics are hard-but very
brittle. .
(C) POLYMERS
Polymers include the familiar plastic and rubber materials. Many of them are. organic
compounds that are chemically based on carbon, hydrogen and other n.oilmetaffic
e/ements; furthermore, they have very large molecular structures. These materials
typically have low densities and may be extremely fIe"ible-
(D) COMPOSITES
A number of composite materials have been engincered that consists of more than one
material type. A composite is designed to display a combination of the best characteristics
of each component materials- For example a fiberglass acquires' strength from glass and
flexibility from a polymer.
~) SEMICONDUCTORS
Semiconductors have electric.al properties that are intermediate between the
electrical conduCtors and insulators. Furthermore. the electrical characteristics of these
materials are extremely sensitive !O the presence of minute concentrations of impurity
atoms, which concentrations may be controlled over very small spatial regions. The
semiconductors have made possible the advent of integrated circuitry that has totally
revolutionized the electronics and computer industries-
(F) BIOMATERIALS
Biomatcrials are employed in components implanted into the human bod v for
replacement of diseased or damage body parts. These marerials musr not produce toxic
substances and must be compatible with the body tissues Ue musr not cause adverse
biological reactions). All of the-above materials - metals. ceramics. polymers. composites
