Objectives and competences

The objective of the course is that students will gain basic theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge: • to provide the basic knowledge about mechanical behaviour of materials in regard to the operation condition of construction. • to provide the basic knowledge of joined materials which are used for equipment design. • practical application of process equipment design • to determine the real mechanical properties of materials • defects estimation of materials Develop skills that will enable students to independently and creatively solve engineering problems.

Content (Syllabus outline)

Lectures: • Basic features of internal structures of materials and proper application of materials in regard to their microstructure and mechanical properties. • Testing of materials with using basic mechanical tests. • Mechanical behaviour determination of materials at different loadings (statics or dynamics) and extreme temperature (low or high) operation. • Basic features of jointed materials. • Standard classification of materials and their application at process equipment design. • Basic features of bearings, shafts, axles and pipe flanges. • Nondestructive method of detecting defects at materials and joints which appears during loading operation and preventive measure for their safe operation. Tutorial and seminar work: Mechanical behaviour determination of homogeneous and heterogeneous materials at operation and their application at process equipment design.

Learning and teaching methods

Frontal lectures. Coursework. Practical work at laboratory exercises.

Intended learning outcomes - knowledge and understanding

Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to explain and present: • basic knowledge about selection and application of materials for process equipment • basic rules and standards for dimensioning of standard and nonstandard structure’s parts and elements • basic features and operation coditions of process equipment • defects at materials and joints • present spreading of fracture in materials ESCO knowledge: - to measure and categorization control of different material strenght level. - joint of metal with materials for soft solder and welding. - to use ultrasound technics and equipment for detecting of defects in solid materials - to report on defects in production materials - production procedure of different vessels as boilers and pressure vessels and their application - fracture mechanics Transferable/Key Skills and other attributes: Combined use of different standards, technical knowledge for dimensioning and software for design of process equipment.
