</ul>

<p>You can find a link to the Open University Admissions service and application instructions on the <a href="https://www.tuni.fi/en/study-with-us/open-higher-education-studies/open-university/applying-open-university">Applying to Open University studies</a> page.</p>

<p>Some of the studies require prior studies. For example, studying intermediate studies may require some completed basic studies. These are described on the Information about studies tab of the study unit under prior requirements.</p>

<p>When you have been admitted to the studies, you must enrol separately via the Sisu information system for the implementation of the unit of study and, for example if set, for a practise group of your choice. You will receive instructions on how to do this by e-mail after you have confirmed your acceptance of the study place by paying the required fee.</p>

<h5>Core content</h5><ul><li>Main factors affecting adhesive bonds at material interfaces</li><li>Surface characteristics: Wetting and surface energy<br></li><li>Importance of adhesion to material performance</li><li>Concepts of crack, fracture and delamination</li><li>Understands scientific thinking, reasoning and explanation </li></ul><h5>Complementary knowledge</h5><ul><li>The student is able to solve possible adhesion problems in different production processes and can predict functionality of materials in terms of adhesion at bonds.</li><li>Contact angle measurements</li><li>Specific surface treatment and modification methods (e.g. corona, flame, plasma, chemical modification (primers, adhesion promoters)<br></li><li>Numerical models for bond failure<br></li></ul><h5>Specialist knowledge</h5><ul><li>DIfferent models of surface enregy determination</li><li>Surface treatment devices</li><li>Nonlinearity of materials, damage</li><li>Knows the risks associated with digital environments and takes them into account in his/her own actions</li></ul>

The target of the course is to make participants understand the importance and factors of adhesion related to materials performance and the fundamental concepts of crack, fracture and delamination related to failure of adhesive bond. The target skills are the ability to apply surface treatments for specific materials to improve adhesion and the ability to plan work for understanding and solving practical problems related to the enhancement and semi-empirical prediction of adhesion.
