Requirements

Examination on lectures and literature. Passed practical lessons.
Completion parts must belong to the same implementation

Learning outcomes

After completing the course, the student will be able to define different non-destructive testing (NDT) methods and to be able to demonstrate various NDT techniques to evaluate materials during processing and finished products and structures. The student can explain the principles of conventional NDT methods (visual inspection, magnetic methods, thermal methods, radiography, eddy current testing, ultrasonic inspection). The student can analyze the limitations and advantages of different NDT methods to select the appropriate techniques for inspections.
