Course title, code: Material Testing, GAGEBAN-ANYVIZSG-2
The aim of the subject Materials Testing is to familiarise students with the state-of-the-art materials testing techniques used to qualify modern materials and to provide them with basic practical experience in materials testing.
General requirements for material testing, preparation of reports and protocols. Diffraction methods and their application in the examination of metals and polymers. Methods of determining material composition, spectroscopic material testing. Advanced non-destructive material testing methods and their application areas. Examination of thin material samples. Material testing using electron microscopy. Ductility tests. Significance of surface material properties and their examination. Diagnostic material testing. Examination of time-dependent mechanical properties. Thermoanalytical examinations. Rheological tests.
Course content - labs:
Knowledge:
Comprehensively understands the basic facts, directions, and limits of the technical field. Knows the general and specific mathematical, natural, and social science principles, rules, relationships, and procedures necessary for practicing the technical field. At the applied level, knows the requirements and expectations of work and fire safety, security technology, and occupational health in relation to their field, as well as relevant environmental regulations. Comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals, limits, and requirements of logistical, management, environmental, quality assurance, information technology, legal, and economic areas associated with mechanical engineering.
Capable of identifying routine professional problems, uncovering the theoretical and practical background necessary to solve them, formulating and solving them (with the practical application of standard operations). Able to understand and use characteristic literature, computational, and library resources of their field. Capable of directing and controlling technical manufacturing processes while keeping elements of quality assurance and quality control in mind. Able to diagnose mechanical failures, select corrective operations, and solve repair tasks. Capable of applying and enforcing safety, fire safety, and hygiene rules and regulations during work.
In complex or unexpected decision-making situations, makes decisions taking into full account legal regulations and ethical norms. Possesses appropriate perseverance and monotony tolerance for performing practical activities. Open and receptive to new, modern, and innovative procedures and methods related to ecological management and health awareness. Adheres to and enforces relevant safety, health, environmental, quality assurance, and control requirements during work.
Identifies shortcomings in applied technologies, risks in processes, and initiates measures to reduce them. Keeps track of legal, technical, technological, and administrative changes related to the field. Under the guidance of workplace leaders, directs the work of assigned personnel, supervises the operation of machinery and equipment. Shares experiences with colleagues, thereby assisting in their development. Takes responsibility for technical analyses and proposals formulated based on them.
Mid-term study requirements:
During the semester, students will write 2 final papers. The lecturer will inform the students of the time and place of the final examination in the first week of the semester.
