Failure Analysis of Polymer and Composite Parts: Methodology and Tools for Expertise
Despite efforts to improve the reliability of polymers and polymer composites, failures may occur due to manufacturing defects, inappropriate use of the materials and/or ageing due to environmental degradation. Good failure investigation skills gather pieces of information based on different characterization techniques that complement one other and use them to the benefits of hypothesizing possible failures, segregating irrelevant causes, and concluding the root cause of failure.
This training introduces the fundamental principles of failure analysis, the methodologies applied in expertise, and the tools required to understand failures and propose solutions to improve the final quality of parts.
Objectives:
The training helps participants to:
- Apply a structured failure analysis methodology
- Identify available analytical methods and tools
- Initiate a failure mode analysis of a part
Targeted Skills:
Apply failure analysis approaches to cases encountered in your company. Select appropriate analytical tools to trace the causes of failures and understand their purpose
