Course Overview

This course provides comprehensive training in the principles of materials engineering and the systematic investigation of material failures in industrial, mechanical, and structural applications. It further examines industry standards, documentation practices, and preventive strategies essential for improving reliability, safety, and lifecycle performance of engineering assets. The curriculum covers material properties, selection criteria, degradation mechanisms, fracture mechanics, and advanced diagnostic techniques used to identify the root causes of failures. Participants will learn how to assess material performance under mechanical, thermal, chemical, and environmental stresses, and how to apply failure analysis methodologies to prevent recurrence.
