Course detail

Reliability 2

FSI-XS2 Acad. year: 2018/2019 Summer semester

The subject is focused on the most advanced knowledge of reliability, and the subject is an extension of Reliability I subject. Attention is also paid to some selected subjects, which are specified in the syllabus. This may be flexibly changed and modified during lectures, both in contents and in scope, according to the student requirements.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

3

Learning outcomes of the course unit

A student will extend his theoretical knowledge of reliability which can apply in industrial mechanical/electrical engineering practice to solve different problems related to the aforementioned topics.

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 and Reliability I subject is expected.

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 subject consists of lectures and tutorials. Exercises are required. The tutorial will be completed by credit. To receive the credit, the 100% active participation of the student in tutorials will be required. The examination is based on a written test, and the student may achieve the scoring of up to 100. The final scoring rate of the test shall be classified according to the ECTS grading system.

Aims

The objective of the subject is to acquire the knowledge of reliability. The subject continues in Reliability I subject as well as Principles of Reliability in the framework of the bachelor’s study.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

The student attendance is checked in tutorials (presence and activity). The 100% participation in tutorials is required, and in case of absence, the student will be obliged to compensate, the alternative attendance will be specified by the lecturer.
