Educational goal:

Deepening of existing and acquisition of new theoretical and practical knowledge in the fields of metal casting and heat treatment. Training for independent problem solving, planning and implementation of experiments, and analysis of experimental results. Encouraging creative thinking and critical analysis of existing scientific knowledge and practices.

Educational outcome:

Upon completion of this course, students possess theoretical and practical knowledge of heat treatment and casting technologies. They are able to: 1. critically analyze existing scientific knowledge and practices from the selected course modules; 2. independently solve theoretical and practical problems from the selected modules; 3. independently design and conduct experiments, independently use equipment and materials necessary for conducting the experiments, and critically analyze the results of the experiments; 4. improve existing and develop new methods, instruments and materials in area of the selected course modules.

Course content:

In accordance with the planned research focus, student in agreement with his advisor chooses at least two of the following offered modules: Casting of nanocomposites; Casting of non-ferrous metal alloys; Casting of ferrous alloys; Gating systems; Feeding of castings; Use of rapid prototyping techniques in metal casting; Computers in modern foundries; Latest advances in casting tools and devices; Quality control in foundries; Management of casting processes; Heat treatment of additive manufactured metal parts; Heat treatment of aluminum alloys; Steel heat treatment; Computers in heat treatment; Latest advances in heat treatment equipment; Quality control in heat treatment; Management of heat treatment processes.

Teaching methods:

Lectures, study and research work, and consultations. During lectures, theoretical part of the teaching content is presented and supplemented by practical examples for better understanding. Through lectures, students familiarize themselves with contemporary scientific knowledge, scientific methods and procedures from the field of this course, which prepares them for autonomous research work. Study research work includes all forms of teaching that are in the function of training students for conducting a research, writing scientific articles, and creating a doctoral dissertation. As such, it includes active monitoring of primary scientific sources, organization and execution of numerical simulations and experimental research.
