KJTS2100 Introduction to Chemical Engineering Course description

Students must be registered in the third year and have completed at least 100 credits from the first and second years by the 1st of October before they are assigned a topic for their bachelor's thesis.

The course builds on KJM2400 Biochemistry and Microbiology and some subjects from KJM2300 Analytical Chemistry I. It is recommended that students taking the course have passed the exam in KJM2400 Biochemistry and Microbiology.

Etter å ha gjennomført dette emnet har studenten følgende læringsutbytte, definert som kunnskap, ferdigheter og generell kompetanse:

Kunnskap

Studenten kan:

• terminologien som benyttes samt kjenne til historikk og skadeanalyser
• teorien for sprekkinitieringsmekanismer, sprekkvekst, brudd og levetidsberegninger
• det statistiske grunnlaget for S-N kurvene og levetidsberegninger basert på disse
• strekklappberegninger, varierende lastspekter, standardene Eurokode 3 og DNV RP-C203
• enkle beregninger med Lineær elastisk bruddmekanikk og Elastisk plastisk bruddmekanikk
• Paris lov, skadetoleranse, ikke destruktiv prøving og velge inspeksjonsprogram

Ferdigheter

Studentene kan:

• anvende kunnskapen til å konstruere med hensyn på utmattingsfaren og beregne utmattingslevetiden til en stålkonstruksjon ved hjelp av standardene Eurokode 3 og DNV RP-C203
• bruke bruddmekanikk for å beregne levetid og lage inspeksjonsprogrammer

Generell kompetanse

Studentene kan:

• utføre utmattingsberegninger av enkle dynamisk belastede stålkonstruksjoner
• kommunisere om faglig tema med andre fra fagområdet

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student:

• is capable of using and processing knowledge of science and technology to solve biotechnology and chemistry-related problems
• is capable of proposing alternative technical solutions, and analysing and quality assuring the results.

Skills

The student:

• is capable of translating knowledge into practical solutions
• masters modern analytical and biotechnology methods and has knowledge of safe laboratory work
• is capable of quality assuring and analysing results obtained in a project
• is capable of documenting and discussing results, both orally and in writing
• is capable of obtaining literature and other background information of relevance to the project, and writing reports based on standardised methods.

General competence

The student:

• is capable of carrying out an engineering assignment based on a practical industrial or research-related issue in an independent and systematic manner
• masters both independent work and team work, including planning and implementation of engineering projects
• has the ability to place their own work in a wider engineering context.

Ny eksamen våren 2020: Individuell skriftlig hjemmeeksamen på 3 timer.

[Tidligere: Individuell skriftlig eksamen på 3 timer.]

Eksamensresultat kan påklages.

The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can sit the exam:

• course in literature searches and source criticism
• approved progress schedule
• two oral presentations.

A grade scale with grades from A to E for pass (with A being the highest grade and E being the lowest pass grade) and F for fail is used for the final assessment.

Ingen ut over opptakskrav.

One internal examiner. External examiners are used regularly.

Forelesninger, laboratoriearbeid og øvinger med veiledning.
