Abstract
Overview of the project (e.g. overall schematic of various steps/parts) to explain overall process.
Description of one specific step/component you are concerned with describe what is happening there (use a schematic).
Requirements:
Functional requirements temperatures, stresses, corrosive gases liquids, heat transfers, operating life, suspected failure scenarios/ potential consequences, etc.
Physical requirements size, formability, weldability, etc.
Performance Indices and their Weightage:
Performance Indices: Combine 6(a) and 6(b) above to generate performance indices: maximize strength at minimum density so that I can use the smaller wall-thickness/ ad weight, or yield before fracture so I can avoid sudden failure, minimize heat-up time or cool down time, etc.
Weightage of performance Indices.
Preliminary selection: Out of the various material groups, such as, metals/ceramics/plastics/composites/natural materials/foams/elastomers these are out because of these reasons.
Common sense selection of potential material types, such as, cast irons, low carbon steels, stainless steels, polymers, copper base alloys, nickel-base alloys, titanium-based alloys, etc.
Generate Tables of properties, performance indices values, etc. to get your first choice.
Now repeat step 10 above at a more refined level, e.g., various types of stainless steels, aluminum alloys, etc.
AND THEN DONT FORGET YOUR SUMMARY AND REFERENCES!!
