Short description
The course elaborates the interaction between loading situation of components exposed to temperature and pressure in industrial plants and the associated material and failure behavior. It gives an explanation about the development of damage and describes adequate design and monitoring methods according to standards and state of art.
|
Objectives
At the end of the course the students are expected to have basic knowledge about:
• possible loading situation of key components in power plants
• the impact of loading situation an damage development
• respective standards and methods to evaluate the damage in components
• respective monitoring methods for detecting damage at components
• evaluation of the uncertainty of these methods
Target Attendees / Participants
University students of Steinbeis European Master Program in Risk Engineering and Management, and similar programs
