Mechanical Failure Analysis

[spacer height=”20px”]

Course Description

• Mechanical failures are the cause of ceasing a production and thus ought to be eliminated through the intervention of maintenance.  It is vital to correctly grasp the concept of failures. Mechanical failure analysis introduces the causes of the failures, which need to be corrected for efficient production.  This course is also designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice of failure analysis.

Course Description

• Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) involves a number of inspection techniques designed to detect discontinuities or defects in different types of materials. NDT is used in many fields, such as the aircraft industry, pipelines, nuclear reactors, automotive servicing and many others.
• This course covers the fundamental NDT methods currently employed and instills participants with the ability to assess factors affecting choice of methods to be utilized in relation to materials, defect type, position and other relevant parameters.
