Technology of Construction Materials and Materials Science : lecture notes : lectures 1–22 : course of lectures
(Харківський національний автомобільно-дорожній університет, 2026) Hlushkova, D. B.
The course “Technology of Construction Materials and Materials Science” (22 lectures) develops theoretical knowledge and practical skills in materials science and the technology of construction materials. It covers the crystalline structure of metals and alloys, their mechanical, physical, and technological properties, as well as crystallization and polymorphic transformations. Separate topics address the metallurgical production of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, modern casting methods, and metal forming. A significant part of the course is devoted to alloy theory, the iron-carbon (iron-cementite) state diagram, steel classification, the fundamentals of heat treatment (annealing, quenching, tempering), hardenability, surface hardening methods for machine parts, and alloy steels. The material is presented systematically, with real-world industrial examples, self-assessment questions, and practical tasks. The course is delivered in English, which supports students’ academic mobility and mastery of professional terminology. It is intended for students of engineering disciplines and professionals who wish to deepen their knowledge of the properties, structure, and practical applications of structural materials in mechanical engineering, construction, and aerospace.

Structure examination : lecture notes
(Харківський національний автомобільно-дорожній університет, 2026) Hlushkova, D. B.
The lecture notes Structure Examination provide a systematic overview of the methods and principles used to investigate the structure, properties, defects and failure mechanisms of metallic materials and machine components. The course covers the fundamentals of materials science and metallurgical examination, destructive and non-destructive testing methods, fractography, and the principles of metallographic analysis. Particular attention is paid to the examination of welded joints, the formation of weld microstructures, the identification of defects, and the determination of the causes of cracking and fracture in metal components. The course also addresses the methodology for investigating the causes of machine-part failure, including the assessment of material quality, manufacturing technology, operating conditions and loading factors. The acquired knowledge provides a basis for interpreting investigation results, establishing the causes of material and component failure, evaluating their service suitability, and developing recommendations to improve the reliability and durability of engineering structures and machine parts.

Solid state chemistry : lecture notes
(Харківський національний автомобільно-дорожній університет, 2026) Hlushkova, D. B.
The lecture notes Solid State Chemistry provide a systematic introduction to the fundamental principles governing the structure, chemical bonding, and physicochemical properties of solid materials. The course examines the relationship between the atomic and electronic structure of solids and their functional characteristics, which is essential for understanding the behaviour of modern engineering materials. The main topics include crystal symmetry and crystallography, chemical bonds in solids, elements of crystal chemistry, the electronic band structure and electrical conductivity of solids, crystal defects, and the thermodynamics and kinetics of solid-state processes. Particular attention is paid to crystal structures, coordination environments, structural transformations, diffusion processes, phase formation, and the influence of defects on the physical and chemical properties of materials. The lecture notes also address the fundamental mechanisms of solid-state reactions and the formation of new phases, providing a theoretical basis for understanding material synthesis, processing, and modification. The material is intended to develop students’ knowledge of the structural and chemical factors that determine the properties and performance of engineering materials. The lecture notes are intended for students pursuing degrees in materials science, materials engineering, mechanical engineering, and related technical disciplines. They may also be useful for postgraduate students, researchers, and specialists involved in the development, investigation, and improvement of advanced materials.

Nanomaterials : lecture notes : lectures 1–16 : course of lectures
(Харківський національний автомобільно-дорожній університет, 2026) Hlushkova, D. B.
The lecture notes “Nanomaterials” are intended to provide students with fundamental knowledge of the structure, classification, properties, production methods, investigation techniques, and practical applications of nanomaterials and nanostructured materials. The course covers the basic principles of nanoscience and nanotechnology, the structural features of nanoscale materials, and the relationship between their microstructure, chemical composition, and physical and mechanical properties. Particular attention is paid to methods for synthesising nanomaterials, including plasma-chemical synthesis, laser-assisted processes, mechanical alloying, severe plastic deformation, and chemical and physical deposition techniques. Modern methods for characterising nanomaterials, including electron microscopy, scanning probe microscopy, and diffraction analysis, are also considered. The lecture notes examine the application of nanomaterials in nanoelectronics, engineering, the automotive industry, nuclear power engineering, and the development of advanced functional and structural materials. The material is intended to support students in developing theoretical knowledge and understanding the potential of nanotechnology for modern materials engineering and industrial applications.
