      The goalThe aim is to familiarize students with the most advanced technological methods of making parts by: superalloys, and reactive metal implants, composite metal foam castings ,monocrystals obtained by directed crystallization and dr.Many of these procedures are still in the experimental stage of development or prototypical primarily because of exceptional costs of production.
      The outcomeStudents will be able to recognize the value and quality of the product obtained by special technological procedures and to assess the usage and commercial justification of the possibility of making the same, especially in local conditions.
      Contents
