Course Description
Mechanical failures are the cause of ceasing a production and thus ought to be eliminated through the intervention of maintenance. It is vital to correctly grasp the concept of failures. Mechanical failure analysis introduces the causes of the failures, which need to be corrected for efficient production. This course is also designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice of failure analysis.
