Summary
Basic subject for bachelor study "Mechanical engineering" with concentration
on welding. The students will inform about division welding technologies,
thermal cycles in welded joints, deformation cycles in welded joints,
weldability of materials, post-weld head treatment of welded joints, non-
destructive and destructive testing of welded joints.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
