Objective

A future professional of production, maintenance or engineering, this course supports your understanding of the lifecycle of assets from sourcing to rejection. You are able to define the required performance, which means that you can compile comprehensive and measurable techincal requirements. You understand the significance of the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and dependability for the production effectiveness and you are able to view the matter computationally. You are able to present analytical solutions to various dependability problems and apply known tools for solving the problems.

Knowledge and understanding:
You understand the pricipals of dependability thinking and understand the significance of requirements management

Engineering practice:
You are able to use analytical tools to assure the dependability of systems

Multidisciplinary competences:
You master both mathematical and qualitative skills.

Content

Technical definition of systems performance. Dependability and reliability engineering terms and definitions. Overall equipment effectiveness. Probability calculations. Dependability analysis. Failure cause analysis. Dependability development methods.
