[*]Examples for the usage of cast material and cast components.
[*]Overview over the mostly used cast materials, their quasi-static and cyclic characteristics, overview over cast processes and moulding materials and their importance for defect free cast components, examples and limiting effects for the usage of cast materials.   
[*]Structural durability of cast components and materials, quasi-static and cyclic material behaviour, cyclic characterization of cast materials for lifetime assessment, load analysis of operating and extreme loads, size effects, possibilities for a lifetime assessment also for large cast components.
[*]Material defects in cast components and their effects on strength and lifetime, typical defects in cast com-ponents and their assessment with the help of cast simulation, introduction to standards to determine material defects (ASTM and BDG).
[*]Design of cast components, standards (e.g.: BDG K200), aspects for a lightweight construction, examples from practical application.
[*]Lifetime assessment of cast components, problems and solutions for the lifetime assessment when casting defects occur by connecting non-destructive testing, cast simulation and structural durability, new ma-terial concepts and their effect on fatigue (ADI).
[*]Virtual based lifetime assessment, process simulation, assessment of local microstructures in changing wall thicknesses with the help of cast simulation, “Foundry 4.0”.

[list=1]
[*]Assign the different cast materials with regard to their characteristics to their usage.  
[*]Describe the lifetime determining parameters for cast components (stress/strain, material parameters, size effects and material defects).
[*]Explain the conditions for a lightweight and lifetime optimized cast component with regard to the manufacturing process and usable simulation tools.
[*]To decide, how the lifetime of a cast component can be properly assessed with regard to changing wall thicknesses, size effects and defects by the usage of simulation and non-destructive testing tools and methods.
