Fundamentals of Surface Engineering: Mechanisms,Processes and Characterizations

By Dr. D K Dwivedi | IIT Roorkee

Learners enrolled: 744

The course content is designed to have systematic and comprehensive understanding on various aspects related with surface engineering of metallic components for enhanced tribological life. It is proposed to include fundamental mechanisms of wear such as adhesive, abrasive, erosive, cavitation, corrosion etc., governing laws, materials properties importance for improved wear resistance under different wear conditions, materials increased tribological life, processes for engineering surfaces of three board categories a) regulating the micro-structure without changing chemical composition b) modification of chemical composition of near surface layers and c) developing of films, coating, and cladding on the. Methods of characterization needed for evaluating the metallurgical and mechanical and tribological properties and performance of engineered surfaces shall also be presented. Presentations will be supported with case studies for effective communication of concepts and procedures. Case studies will be taken up regarding surface engineering of various metal systems like ferrous and non-ferrous metals using different approaches discussed

The online registration form has to be filled and the certification exam fee needs to be paid. More details will be made available when the exam registration form is published. If there are any changes, it will be mentioned then.
Please check the form for more details on the cities where the exams will be held, the conditions you agree to when you fill the form etc.

CRITERIA TO GET A CERTIFICATE

Average assignment score = 25% of average of best 8 assignments out of the total 12 assignments given in the course.
Exam score = 75% of the proctored certification exam score out of 100
Final score = Average assignment score + Exam score

YOU WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR A CERTIFICATE ONLY IF AVERAGE ASSIGNMENT SCORE >=10/25 AND EXAM SCORE >= 30/75.

If one of the 2 criteria is not met, you will not get the certificate even if the Final score >= 40/100.
Certificate will have your name, photograph and the score in the final exam with the breakup.It will have the logos of NPTEL and IIT Roorkee. It will be e-verifiable at nptel.ac.in/noc.
Only the e-certificate will be made available. Hard copies are being discontinued from July 2019 semester and will not be dispatched
