Materials for lightweight design - how to treat them right 2.0
LightRight2.0
KTH is involved in a large pan-European consortium to develop professional training for lightweight materials. KTH will contribute a training course on powder metallurgy in partnership with Politecnico di Milano (Italy).
The programme currently offers training in two levels: basic and advanced. The basic course is a single module covering fundamental knowledge of design adn materials selection for reducing the weight of components, machines and structures. Once you pass this module, you are able to apply for a certificate to prove your competence. Each advanced module covers a specific class of materials. Completing any six advanced modules allows you to apply for a certificate of competence at the advanced level.
Please see the Lightweight Professional website (link to external website) for more details. Project funded by EIT Raw Materials and led By Fraunhofer IFAM (Germany).
