Content, progress and pedagogy of the module

Learning objectives

Knowledge

• Have knowledge and comprehension for how to design condition monitoring and diagnostic for power electronics or dynamic systems
• Have knowledge and comprehension within different system identification and diagnostic methods
• Have knowledge and comprehension within the design, analysis and modelling of power electronic systems or sub-systems with complex dynamics and elements with linear and non-linear behaviour
• Have knowledge and comprehension within maintenance schemes, economic benefits, scope and limitation
• Have knowledge and comprehension within maintenance strategies applied to various problems in the industrial sectors

Skills

• Be able to judge the usefulness of the different scientific methods for the design of diagnostic, and condition monitoring systems
• Be able to verify the different scientific analysis and methods by laboratory experiments

Competences

• Be able to control the working and development process within the project theme, and be able to develop new solutions within diagnostic, condition monitoring, and maintenance of energy systems
• Be able to set up innovative ideas within the area of condition monitoring, diagnostic and maintenance
• Independently be able to continue own development in competence and specialisation related to the field

Type of instruction

Problem based project oriented project work in groups.

The considered system should be analysed, and models and simulations of the system are to be made. Different methods are to be applied to find the parameters of the system.

The set-up models should be verified by experimental test either directly on a real system or on a model or parts of the scaled systems set-up in the laboratory. 

The project must be documented in a project report.

Extent and expected workload

Since it is a 10 ECTS project module, the work load is expected to be 300 hours for the student.
