Learning outcomes
Material is subjected a lot of influences in the technical practice, which cause its devaluation, rust and other degradation. Knowledge of way of devaluation and prevention of influence of entourage is the important factor by proposal of constructions, constructional complexes and by protection of goods from export from the production plant. Problems are solving in the automobile and aircraft technology all the time. Prospective on area of influence of entourage over product, material and ways of protection of material and product is the aim of this cursus.
Students will get acquainted with the basic mechanisms of corrosion, procedures for evaluating the corrosion attack of materials used in energy using the relevant standards.
