Microstructure and Properties of Heterogeneous Materials
This subject provides a comprehensive and consistent overview on the microstructure and properties of heterogeneous materials (single-phase or multiphase), including composites dense poly- and nanocrystalline materials, multiphase materials, porous and cellular materials, based on the theory of heterogeneous materials, so-called micromechanics. In the introduction a general classification of heterogeneous materials is presented and the preparation of dense and porous poly- and nanocrystalline materials is described. Methods for the microstructural characterization of heterogeneous materials are briefly summarized and the concept of correlation functions for the description of the microstructure of heterogeneous materials is explained. Micromechanical bounds and model relations describing microstructure-property relations are explained in detail, including mixture rules and cross-property relations. The main part of the subject concerns mechanical, thermophysical and thermomechanical properties, a smaller part electrical, magnetic and optical properties, fluid transport in porous media and the viscosity and thermal conductivity of suspensions and nanofluids. In the context of nanomaterials the structure of the interface and the so-called phase mixture model for calculating the grain size dependence of properties is explained. The subject is suitable for students of all material study programs and specializations.

Characterization of Particles and Microstructures
This course provides a comprehensive overview on the methods used for the characterization of particles, particle systems and microstructures of heterogeneous materials, including nanoparticles, nanocrystalline and nanoporous materials. In the first part parameters for the description of the size, shape and arrangement of particles, grains and pores in microstructures are defined and the statistics of small particles, grains and pores is explained, including quantiles, mean values, moments and moment ratios. In the second part the different methods for the characterization of particles, grains and pores are treated in some detail, from sedimentation methods, laser diffraction, dynamic light scattering, image analysis, X-ray diffraction, adsorption methods and mercury porosimetry to less popular methods for the characterization of particles and microstructures. A special focus of this course is the evaluation of planar sections of the microstructure using stereological relations and the use of integral transformations for the correction of the random section problem. In two lectures also sintering and disperse systems are briefly treated, including suspensions and nanofluids and methods for characterizing their electrokinetic behavior. The course is suitable for students of all fields of chemistry and materials science and engineering. It can be particularly recommended for everyone interested in characterizing systems of small particles or microstructures of heterogeneous materials.

Diploma Thesis
The purpose of Diploma Thesis is to prove students’ capability of dealing with the particular topic independently. The description of applied methods and comprehensive evaluation of obtained results as well as consequent discussion concerning these results are expected. The Thesis consists of the theoretical part, where students perform literary (re)search sourcing mainly from scientific literature, chiefly from foreign origin. They improve their theoretical background related to the topic of the thesis. The practical part of the thesis is experimental and requires application of knowledge and skills acquired during previous studies and during the literary (re)search mentioned above. The clear and relevant presentation of the obtained results, their comprehensive evaluation and discussion held in the context of the current state of knowledge presented in the theoretical part form an integral part of the thesis. Formulation of conclusions demonstrating that the aims of the thesis have been accomplished is also required.
