About the course
Course content
An introduction to reliability-based design and operation of mechanical systems in marine and offshore applications. The following topics are covered: - Dynamic load and response analysis of mechanical systems under variable loads - Dynamic modelling of mechanical systems - Stochastic analysis of load effects in rotating machinery - Using structural reliability in machine design - Design of mechanical components based on first principle - Using reliability-based approach in operational phase for inspection planning and maintenance - Using stochastic approach in fault detection of mechanical systems - Introduction on digital twin and model-based monitoring methods
Learning outcome
After completing this course the students should be able to: - Establish a dynamic model of a mechanical system - Employ stochastic methods to analysis load and load effects in mechanical systems in marine and offshore applications, especially rotating machinery - Familiar with reliability analysis methods - Use structural reliability methods to design mechanical components - Use stochastic approach for fault detection in mechanical systems - Employ model-based and digital twin methods in condition monitoring and fault detection
