Providing a practical understanding of fatigue and fracture calculations,
This course provides a basic introduction to the Inventive Problem this course is intended for engineers who are required to perform such
Solving Process known as “TRIZ” (Russian acronym for “Theory of calculations, or who specify or evaluate testing and draft fatigue or
