This course covers individual learning assignments and activities within the field of specialization (“Surface Technology and Tribology”, “Surface engineering and Maintenance”, “Skin Tribology” or “Tribology Based Maintenance”). The course is not scheduled in the time tables of the programme. About the content and the study load, the student requires written approval (e-mail) of the supervisor on beforehand.
Aim: to obtain in-depth knowledge of a specialized subject in the aforementioned areas. The final purpose is that the student is able to explore alternatives and answers to a specific research question and to discuss their validity, limitations and/or relevance for application.
The content is case specific. The answers to the research question may be found by literature study, by simple experiments, by (numerical) analysis and modelling or a combination of these.
