Entry requirements
120 credits including 15 credits in materials engineering at an advanced level, including Additive Manufacturing in Polymeric Materials. Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6.
Learning outcomes
After a successfully completed course the student should be able to:
- describe methods and possibilities to simulate and control additive manufacturing processes,
- describe properties of printed component that can be measured and techniques for this,
- give an overview of the central concepts in quality control and quality management systems.
Content
Needs and opportunities for modeling additive manufacturing processes are presented and discussed, with a focus on powder bed technology and how thermomechanical effects affect components produced by additive manufacturing. Strategies for process simulation and software for process simulation and their possibilities to study effects of different process parameters in additive manufacturing processes are practiced. Possibilities for collecting and processing process data are discussed, as well as strategies and techniques for quality control of additively manufactured components.
Instruction
Lectures, assignments and seminars.
Assessment
Active participation in seminars (2 credits) and assignments (3 credits).
If there are special reasons for doing so, an examiner may make an exception from the method of assessment indicated and allow a student to be assessed by another method. An example of special reasons might be a certificate regarding special pedagogical support from the disability coordinator of the university.
