Course content
Utility value of means of transport and infrastructure. Operational reliability, basic concept and characteristics. Kinds of faults, stream of faults. Methods for reliability analysis. Probability-based approach, simulation methods. Introduction to the subject; definition of diagnostics, diagnostic systems, information diagnostic systems, systemic theory of diagnostics and DS. Reliability, operational reliability and quality, relations. Basic and phenomenological scheme of DS, DS classification, characteristics, block diagrams, areas of use. Diagnostic quantities, auxiliary and empirical diagnostic quantities, actual, theoretical and measured value of diagnostic quantities. Limit values of diagnostic quantities (limit, pre-critical, critical value), measurement subsystem. Subsystem for determining functional situation and technical condition, subsystem to localize the fault. Subsystem for predicting further development of technical condition, residual operability. Diagnostic model subsystem, DS control subsystem, human factor subsystem. Selection of diagnostic quantities, principles, purpose, methods. Diagnostic similarity-based complex numbers.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing)
Learning outcomes
Students will be introduced to the principles, characteristics and structure of diagnostic systems (DS) and their application for diagnosing technical condition, localize faults and predict further operability of means of transport and equipment.
By completing this subject the student will be provided with an overview and expertise necessary for the use of diagnostic systems in the management of reconditioning of means of transport and equipment, the management of their operational reliability and quality and in the environmental assessment and protection.
Prerequisites
Completion of the basic subjects of the bachelors study.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination, Self project defence

The students are required to take an active part and hand-in their reports from them in sufficient quality. Examination in the subject (format, content, duration) is given by the Upa rules for Study and Examining. Attendance in the examination is conditioned by the achieved credit The examination consists of a written and oral part. Successful completion of the written part alows you to advance to the oral part.
