Course detail
Practical Materials Engineering on Industrial Artefacts
FSI-0MIAcad. year: 2017/2018
The seminar offers an insight in practical materials engineering by decomposing and analyzing industrial artefacts. By hands-on experience, the students learn how to apply basic principles of material science on the results they can see on samples prepared by classical materials engineering approaches.
