Manufacturing Process Simulations 7,5 Credits

Course Contents

The course is designed to familiarize the student with approaches to simulate, model and optimize for improved manufacturing. Important aspects are the material properties of the manufactured component.

The course includes the following elements:
• Simulation of manufacturing processes.
• Optimization of geometry and process parameters for high quality manufacturing and minimization of defects.
• Modelling and simulation of microstructure formation.
• Modelling and simulation for the prediction of mechanical properties.
• Modelling and simulation of multiphysics problem including temperature phase change, convection and electrical fields.

Examples are taken from industrial manufacturing process, for instance metal casting, polymer injection moulding and plating operations.
