Course detail
Modelling and Simulation of Production Systems
FSI-GMVAcad. year: 2020/2021
The aim of the course is to provide students with the practical knowledge in the field of modern methods for the simulation and modelling of production systems in kontext of Industry 4.0. It focuses primarily on technological processes and manufacturing systems and applies the principles of continuous and discrete simulation for their modelling. The application of simulation methods to designing and controlling discrete systems and processes is analysed, in the field of a strategic planning, operational control and ergonomics.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students should be able to prepare a simulation model of production, to process and evaluate various alternatives.
Prerequisites
- knowledge of basic principles of production systems and machines and their functionality
- basic knowledge of mathematics in the field of differential equations, matrix operations and statistics
- Basic PC skills including various types of data processing software (Excel, Matlab, etc.).
Co-requisites
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
1. Attendance at exercises (except documented excusable absence)
2. Fulfillment of the conditions of continuous control (preparation for exercise, activity during exercise); these requirements will be specified at the beginning of the semester in practice.
3. Elaboration and demonstration of assigned tasks
Examination:
The exam verifies the acquired knowledge. The exam is combined. In the written part verifies the ability of the student to apply the acquired knowledge and methods in the test and in the oral part if necessary verifies the knowledge of theoretical foundations.
