Space environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
Introduction to pressure wave propagation phenomena in hydraulic circuits, water hammer calculations, transient behaviour of hydroelectric plants, 1D numerical simulation of the dynamic behaviour of Francis, Pelton and Kaplan turbines, and study of the sta ...
Micro- and nanofabrication can be taught to students and professionals by textbooks and ex-cathedra lectures, but the real learning comes from seeing the manufacturing steps as they happen. This MOOC will not only explain the basics of microfabrication but ...
Ce cours présente des concepts d'ingénierie mécanique avancée au travers d'exemples concrets de mécanismes de précision. Ceux-ci fonctionnent dans des environnements extrêmes, que ce soit dans l'espace ou sur terre. Les notions théoriques sont approfondies ...
Ce cours d'introduction à la microscopie a pour but de donner un apperçu des différentes techniques d'analyse de la microstructure et de la composition des matériaux, en particulier celles liées aux microscopies électronique et optique. Le cours comprend d ...
The course provides a foundational understanding of turbomachines, covering their classification, fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and key performance parameters. It delves into coordinate systems, velocity analysis, and the application of conserv ...
Following an introduction of the main plasma properties, the fundamental concepts of the fluid and kinetic theory of plasmas are introduced. Applications concerning laboratory, space, and astrophysical plasmas are discussed throughout the course. ...
