Material Testing and Characterisation 6 Credits

The course covers different material properties and material behavior. The link between structure and material properties is important for optimizing materials and processes. Typical Equipment for material testing as well as material characterization are studied. The principles behind the techniques are important knowledge to understand the possibilities and limitation of various techniques. Measured data are analysed and interpreted by the students. The course also covers material standards and material testing standards.

Course Contents
