For the project, it is mandatory to hand in a project plan, half time report, final report and participate in the half time and final seminar. Regarding the laboratory assignment, it is mandatory to participate in all parts of the laboratory assignment and to hand in a short laboratory report including calculations of viscoelastic parameters and FE simulation results. Also, the guest lecture of Magnus Björklund, from Volvo Car Corporation is mandatory.

Prerequisites
