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:TensileHardnessToughnessCompression resistanceCreep resistanceShear strengthFatigue lifeIn 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 TestingMagnetic Particle InspectionRadiographyEddy Current TestingUltrasonic TestingVisual TestingIn this course, we introduce students to these key methods, highlighting their capabilities and uses.When you purchase this course, you not only receive LIFETIME ACCESS to all course materials, but you also get Q&A access through Udemy to the course's instructors:Garry Pace, Licensed professional engineer and metallurgist Ray Harkins, Senior manufacturing professionalSo if you are looking to advance your skill set in the areas of quality, materials science, or materials processing, then this is the class for you!! Sign up today to step in the direction of your next career advancement. See you in class!
