Course detail

Modern Access to Diagnostics and Working Life of Technical Systems

FSI-9MPDAcad. year: 2024/2025

The subject is focused on the advanced approaches in the diagnostics of the life of technical systems. It is a follow-up to the basic theory of technical diagnostics, life and reliability. The basic knowledge is extended by the modern approaches, for example, theory of recognition, statistic methods of classification and especially the applications of neuron networks, fuzzy systems, fuzzy-neuron networks and expert systems in the diagnostics. Attention is also concentrated on technical prediction and its significance for the life estimate of technical systems. The teaching of the subject is supplemented by specific cases of verification of modern approaches in diagnostics and determination of lifetime of selected technical equipment.
