Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Student writes a short report on an agreed topic related to the application of NDT methods within the topic of his dissertation. Knowledge shall be audited by an oral examination, focusing on the knowledge of the methods of NDT with a focus on applications related to the theme of the dissertation. The standard evaluation procedures are used according to the ECTS.
Aims
The objective is to provide theoretical and practical knowledge of the basic methods of non-destructive evaluation of materials, operation diagnostics their importance to quality management..
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
