This course examines various failure mechanisms, including corrosion, wear, stress corrosion and fatigue. Problem solving/mitigation methods such as FMEA and 5-Whys will be practiced. There is a significant laboratory component, in which students perform individual failure analysis projects that require competency on metallography, optical microscopy, hardness testing, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Hands-on experience will be gained.
