Courses

Thin Film Lubrication and Gas-Lubricated Bearings

This course introduces thin film lubrication and its applications to gas-lubricated bearings, including rotordynamics to enable the assessment of the operation of gas-bearing supported rotors.

Dynamical effects in mechanical design

This course introduces the basis for modeling the effects of kinematics and dynamics of mechanical systems in design. The students will be able to explain and model dynamic phenomena.

Heat pump systems

This course aims to study heat pumping cycles and technologies, and equipment, such as compressors (positive displacement and dynamic), heat exchangers, and expansion valves.

CCMX Tribology and Surfaces Interactions

This course is intended to give to the participants (graduates, researchers and industrial professionals) a solid background in tribology and surface interactions. It covers the fundamentals concepts of tribology including surfaces, contact mechanics, friction, lubrication and wear.
