Learnings Outcomes
LO1
Examine scientific data using both quantitative and computational methods 
LO2 Explore the characteristics and properties of engineering materials.

LO3 Explore the characteristics and properties of engineering materials. 
LO4 Examine scientific data using both quantitative and computational methods.

Scenario: 
You work as a material’s engineer and have been tasked with investigating issues with products  manufactured by your company. These products are made from polymer, composite and metal  components.  
Materials are failing in service, but your manager is not sure of the reason for this and has hypothesised  that this could be due to degradation caused by fatigue, creep or other means. It has been suggested that  types of hysteresis should be considered and/or that there are issues with the specification of materials  being used.  

Task: 
Part 1: 

You have been given samples of metals, composite and polymer materials. You have access to tensile  testing equipment (destructive) and dye penetrant testing equipment (non-destructive). 
You are required to carry out tests on these materials and present a formal laboratory report. 
By comparing and contrasting results obtained in your testing with theoretical material properties you  should be able to draw appropriate conclusions. To do this the laboratory report must be structured to  follow a formal scientific method thus ensuring your analysis can be relied upon to be scientifically sound. 
You should ensure that your report includes the following elements: 
• Graphical representations of the quantitative data gathered, using appropriate software

• The SI units used including prefix notation, symbols and derived units 
• Full citation/references using an acceptable referencing system. 
  
Part 2: 
Your manager wants you to write a formal report on the potential in service conditions that may have  caused material failure and the structural properties of the given metals, polymer and composite that you  have been investigating (from Part 1). 
You should consider the effect of degradation on the appearance of the given materials and gather  qualitative feedback from colleagues on the potential causes of failure. This feedback/data will be  presented, using appropriate graphical software within your report. 
Your report should reflect on the application of the scientific method (demonstrated in your laboratory  report) for the testing you carried out. There should also be an analysis of all the graphical data presented  (qualitative and quantitative information from Part 1 and Part 2). 
You should ensure that your report includes the following elements: 
• An explanation and comparison of the types of degradation including elastic, electrical and  magnetic hysteresis 
• A description of the structural properties linked to their respective material properties • The SI units used including prefix notation, symbols and derived units 
• Full citation/references using an acceptable referencing system.

Notes 
1. Please reference all sources used appropriately within the context of your report and also within a  suitable bibliography. 
2. Please reference the published assessment criteria when completing an assignment, to ensure all  elements of each criterion are addressed.
