MSc

The core of the course is to integrate the courses provided by the Polymer Technology group that focus on either the solid or the melt…

Polymers have very attractive properties for use in all kinds of products. For example, they have a low density but also good mechanical,…

The focus of this course is on modeling the mechanical behavior of polymers in the solid state. Of particular interest is the combination…

This course deals with the failure phenomena that may occur in materials in short-term (impact) or long-term (static or cyclic fatigue)…

The course will start with demonstrating the rich variety of flow phenomena that rheologically complex liquids can exhibit. These phenomena…

The contents of this course is included in the new master course 4LM30 Multiscale modelling for polymer mechanics. The course will give…

In this course one of the most important aspects of polymer processing is discussed, i.e. the mixing of polymers. Understanding of the…

In this course the most important numerical techniques for performing stable simulations of the flow of viscolastic fluids are presented.…

The course will start with conveying the required theoretical understandings and experimental techniques and concepts. This should give the…

In continuum mechanics the material is supposed to be a continuum where properties change continuously from one point to the other. However,…

The course will illustrate how the conservation of mass, momentum and energy together with principles from non-equilibrium thermodynamics…
