Failure of components or sometimes the entire structure often pose significant impact and threats to safety, economic and even to environmental issues. A detailed understanding and analysis of the causes is usually deemed as basic requirement in order to prevent similar failures from recurring in the future.
The training provides some of the fundamentals and practical approach of forensic investigation, the various modes and causes of failures to better understand the macro and micro aspects of engineering components.

Although corrosion is regarded as nature’s way of converting a refined metal to a more stable form, its impact on the economy has been significantly devastating in many industries. Studies in the United States alone have estimated the total annual economic impact of corrosion on the US economy to be in hundreds of billions of indirect costs. More importantly, corrosion has been the cause of many infrastructure and industrial incidents leading to injuries and loss of lives. As such, it is important to understand the fundamentals, mechanisms and potential consequences of corrosion.
This 2-day interactive training provides general concepts of recognizing corrosion problems, establishing causes of corrosion and selecting of corrosion control methods through understanding the principles of corrosion mechanisms and its consequences. Some actual case histories of corrosion-related failures will also be presented and studied to help participants gain practical knowledge on the application of these principles.

ASME and API codes are commonly referred to for the design, fabrication, inspection, and testing of pressurized equipment. Failure and damage mechanisms during service are however generally not addressed in these codes. Understanding and determining the causes of failure or degradation is essential when conducting a general inspection, fitness-for-service (FFS) assessment or risk-based-inspection (RBI) of an equipment or plant.
As determination of the cause of failures/degradation can be quite complex due to widely varying material/environmental condition interactions in most plants, API Recommended Practice 571 was published to provide information and general guidelines to assist inspection personnel and engineers in identifying likely causes of damage, as well as to introduce the concepts of service-induced deterioration and failure modes.
While API 571 does serve its purpose well, this training course aims to provide participants with deeper understanding of the failure/damage mechanisms through case studies, comprehensive presentation of metallurgical/scientific evidence and explanation of the fundamentals behind the respective mechanisms. The course also introduces the concepts of metallurgical failure analysis, which would help participants on diagnosing failure and damage mechanisms.

Mechanical Power Transmission is a very dynamic field of activity with various applications ranging from the chain on a bicycle, the gearbox on a wind turbine, or the drive train of an automobile. Understand the causes of failures of components like shaft, gears and bearings, help to better avoid them. For this reason, the implement of an appropriate corrective actions using a structured failure analysis approach is very important.

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 provides fundamentals and practical approach for failure investigation of polymers and polymer composites, the behavior of viscoelastic materials, degradation phenomena to better understand the macro and micro aspects of engineering components.

Mechanical vibration refers to the oscillating motion of an object about a reference position. It is a result of dynamic forces in machines which have moving parts. It is often a destructive and annoying side effect of a useful process or intended operation. Vibration disturbances occur in machines and intricate electronic equipment, if left unattended, will increase product downtime, system maintenance and warranty costs and reduce user satisfaction. It is therefore essential for product designers, equipment manufacturers or system operators to understand the vibration phenomenon, the sources of vibration and to be able to reduce or isolate the unwanted vibration occurs in these machines.

Corrosion, like mechanical vibration, is an omnipresent challenge, affecting infrastructure, machinery, and pipelines across industries. It is a destructive phenomenon that compromises material integrity, leading to fatigue, failures, and substantial maintenance costs. Cathodic protection (CP) is a critical method to mitigate this degradation, safeguarding assets in sectors such as oil and gas, maritime, and infrastructure. In this course, participants will gain insights into CP design, monitoring, and maintenance, equipping them with the skills to combat corrosion effectively and enhance the longevity and reliability of assets in diverse environments.
