Training Courses

Alemnis participates in a wide range of training courses related to mechanical testing, as follows:

Introduction to Tribology

Tribology is defined as the science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion. It therefore encompasses the study of friction, wear and lubrication between surfaces in contact and the interactions at their interface. Such interactions may be the transmission …

Introduction à la tribologie

NOTE: this course is given in FRENCH La tribologie est la science et la technologie qui traite de l’interaction de surfaces quand elles se trouvent en mouvement relatif.  Cette discipline comporte ainsi l’étude des frottements, de l’usure et de la …

Nanoindentation Course

Practical indentation testing of materials to measure their mechanical properties has been in common use for over 100 years. Over that time there have been many developments, the most recent being the use of Instrumented Indentation, where load and depth …

The Cambridge Tribology Course: Friction, Wear & Lubrication

Intensive three-day programme offering an excellent opportunity to gain an overview of the field of tribology. This highly successful course provides an insight into the principles which underlie this important topic. The course is run by the University of Cambridge …

Tribology: Friction, Wear and Lubrication

The study of friction, wear, and lubrication is of enormous practical importance, because the function of many mechanical, electromechanical, and biological systems depends on the appropriate friction and wear values. In recent decades, this field, termed tribology, has received increasing …

Reliability and Test of Microsystems

This course has been developed to give attendees the background to perform Microsystem reliability characterization from the component to system levels. Initially, we present the fundamentals of mechanical, environmental, and reliability testing as applied to Microsystems. The focus begins with …
