Introduction to Material Expertise

Summary

The analysis and evaluation of problems connected with the catastrophic failure of building structures or engineering structures will be aknowledge to the students. In the framework of study the students will get the basic knowledge of fracture mechanics, defectoscopy and testing of materials to analyse the problems. Some cases occurring during the last century will be described and the development of such problems including the final successfull solutions will conclude the problems.
