A course project in plasticity course: experiments vs simulations
Description:
Context
The course “Plasticity: theory and modeling” has been offered this semester for the second time as an elective master degree course which is designed for 3rd semester mechanical engineering master students at the Engineering Department (around 10 students). The course focuses on the subject of materials behaviour in nonlinear plastic regime. The purpose is to strengthen the students’ understanding of the physical origins of materials nonlinearity and various mathematical models to describe plasticity behaviour.
Learning activity
This learning design is a transformation of previous excersise to enable students making a direct connection between course materials and real-world engineering problems. I asked a local company this year to provide me a challenging problem related to the subject of the course which they currently working on. Then I modified the problem to make it feasible for the students. In this project, students are divided in group of two and I provide each group a specimen but without telling them which material is it made from.
Intended Learning Outcomes:
- Perform laboratory experiments and material characterization tests
- Apply appropriate theoretical models to describe different nonlinear material behaviour
- Be able to apply correct numerical boundary conditions corresponding to experimental setup and to perform Finite Element computer simulations
- Prepare a scientific report and presentation based on their results

Carbohydrates- Teaching design
Description:
This course is part of the specialization on Biomacromolecules package. The objective is to provide the students with theoretical knowledge allowing them to independently analyse and suggest ways to produce and modify proteins and carbohydrates using state-of-the art technologies in biotechnology.
Intended Learning Outcomes:
- Describe the consequence of using different biomasses as starting material for carbohydrates
- Describe methods allowing carbohydrates extraction and characterisation
- Describe and analyse the physical and chemical properties of carbohydrates that have an influence on the choice of production and analytical methods
- Describe methods allowing structural determination of protein structures
- Discuss, evaluate and conclude, based on scientific data, procedures for carbohydrates production and analysis
- Discuss global demand and associated economy for carbohydrates within biomedicine, industrial enzymes, food/feed and Materials
