  • Brief description

    The program aims to provide advanced techniques of metal and polymer matrix composite materials processing and understanding the basic principles related to their microstructure evolution. Additive manufacturing problems are also considered during the program in addition to technological topics. Students will learn Metal and Polymer Matrix Composite Materials and understand the basic principles related to their microstructure evolution during production and processing. Additive manufacturing problems are also considered during the program in addition to technological topics. The theoretical courses cover microstructure and advanced physical properties of the materials, equipment description. Students will train their practical skills during interactive practices.

Duration: 2 weeks

First week will be held at Moscow Aviation Institute. Second week will be held at Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University.

ECTS credits: 4.0

Participation fee: 1450 USD

Upon successful completion of the course students will receive hard copies of certificates with ECTS credits (mailed by post in case of the online format of the Summer School).

Deadline for registration: May 27, 2024
