Description
If you are a manufacturing, engineering, or quality professional working in metal processing, having a solid understanding of mechanical testing is certain to enhance your career. The estimations of physical properties needed to design with, process, and test materials and components are derived using various mechanical tests. These properties include:
Tensile
Hardness
Toughness
Compression resistance
Creep resistance
Shear strength
Fatigue life
In this course "Fundamentals of Mechanical Testing", you will learn detailed overviews of each of these tests, how they're performed, and how to interpret their results. You will also learn key ideas in physical metallurgy that affect a component's mechanical properties, and a rich overview of nondestructive test methods.
NDT, as it is called, includes a range of methods that allow a technician to gain critical understanding of a component's quality without damaging the sample. These methods include:
Liquid Penetrant Testing
Magnetic Particle Inspection
Radiography
Eddy Current Testing
Ultrasonic Testing
Visual Testing
In this course, we introduce students to these key methods, highlighting their capabilities and uses.
