Materials and manufacturing technology
7.5 ECTS credits
The materials technology component:
Special emphasis is placed on concepts and terminology as well as the connection between mechanical
properties and the microstructure of materials.
The course contains:
- Lectures and seminars treating mechanical properties and testing, deformation mechanisms, strengthening mechanisms, phase transformations, phase diagrams, transformation diagrams, and heat treatment, as well as the structure, properties, and applications of metallic engineering materials.
- Mandatory laboratory assignments where students are trained in the use of equipment for mechanical testing (tensile, impact, and hardness tests).
The manufacturing technology component:
- Lectures on manufacturing methods and systems, including engineering measurement methods and manufacturing equipment.
- Mandatory safety instruction in the workshop as a requirement for participation in laboratory sessions/exercises.
- Mandatory laboratory sessions/exercises regarding industrial manufacturing processes,
