Description:
The Specialised subject 1 module shall enable students expanding the knowledge about new engineering materials, being the group of intelligent materials. Students learn mechanisms of material response and action to external stimuli. They learn examples of such materials application in practice. Moreover, they expand the knowledge gained on the materials testing methods by possibilities provided by methods of chemical and electrochemical analysis. Students learn basic measurement principles and the construction of specialised instruments. Lectures are also aimed at preparing students to write the engineer thesis and to the diploma exam.
Prerequisites:
Passing modules related to engineering materials groups.
