Prerekvizity

Basic knowlefge of mathematics and physical chemistry.

Plánované vzdělávací činnosti a výukové metody

The course uses teaching methods in form of Lecture - 2 teaching hours per week. The e-learning system (LMS Moodle) is available to teachers and students.

Způsob a kritéria hodnocení

The exam has written and oral parts. The written test is focused on general knowledge in rheology (limit 50 %). The oral part is the lecture - an example of practical application of rheological knowledge on a real problem.
