Course detail

Reliability and Maintenance of Technical Systems

FSI-XS1Acad. year: 2022/2023

The course is focused on the latest knowledge of reliability and maintenance of technical systems. The student is acquainted with the terminology in reliability and maintenance, with standards and legislation in the field of reliability and also with management of reliability and maintenance. Teaching of the subject is complemented by an exercise where all the topics are properly practiced on examples from industrial practice. There is also a discussion of the results and conclusions in the exercises.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will acquire extensive and comprehensive knowledge of reliability and maintenance of technical systems, which will enable them to engage in industrial engineering and electrical engineering in solving problems related to the issue.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of mathematics and physics at a level of university study. Also, the knowledge of the aforementioned special field in a scope of the previous bachelor study is expected.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
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

The course consists of exercises and lectures. Exercise is completed by credit (awarded in the 13th week). To obtain it is required 100% participation in exercises and activity in exercises. Students will work out the individual work in the prescribed range and quality. Based on the quality of the work in the exercise, the student earns up to 30 points for the exam The work must be submitted in writing and checked and recognized by the teacher. The test is realized by written test, student can get up to 70 points from this test, where 30 points from exercises. Evaluation of the test result is given by the ECTS grading scale.
