Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. apply engineering research and theory to advance the art, science, and practice of the discipline.
2. explain what metric is used to quantify the welding and nondestructive examination requirements for the radioactive material transportation packages in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 71 (10 CFR 71).
3. describe what ASME Code Sections relate to the preparation and review of the Safety Analysis Report for Packaging (SARP) for a radioactive material transportation package.
4. demonstrate working knowledge of portions of the ASME Code that relate to welding and nondestructive examination of radioactive material transportation packages.
5. describe the flow-down of requirements from 10 CFR 71, Subpart H, Quality Assurance, to the welding and nondestructive examination requirements in a SARP.
6. identify the regulatory documents and consensus standards that serve as metrics for Software Quality Assurance relative radioactive material transportation packaging.
7. describe the fundamental concepts of software quality assurance relative to radioactive material packaging, including terminology, software development planning, risk management, configuration management, software testing techniques.
8. describe the general sections of ANSI/ASME NQA-1 that relate to software quality assurance.
9. describe some NQA-1 compliance details regarding commercial grade dedication of software, supplier evaluations/audits, and corrective actions.
10. describe some quality assurance aspects of verification and validation of finite element analyses.
