Course detail

Advanced Diagnostics of Technical Systems

FSI-9PDT Acad. year: 2024/2025 Both semester

The subject deals with the advanced diagnostics of technical systems which are used in mechanical and power engineering practice. The subject is based on the theoretical principles of technical diagnostics, and moreover, it includes the modern and advanced approaches. Among them, the application of appropriate methods of diagnostic quantity analysis and the mathematical methods of diagnoses and classifications are involved. The content of subject is also focused on the detection and the localization of failures, that is, the modern and advanced diagnostic procedures and methods are presented.
