This module provides a comprehensive introduction to the reliability assessment of electronic and mechatronic systems. Central topics include damage inputs, damage accumulation, and the application of the Weibull distribution for risk assessment. Students gain an overview of experimental approaches to verifying product reliability and learn how to assess the reliability of complex mechatronic systems. The course combines theoretical foundations with practical tools that are directly applicable to real-world industrial scenarios.
Learning Objectives
By completing the module, students develop the competence to evaluate and ensure the functional safety of electronic and mechatronic components. They are able to describe damage and failure mechanisms, perform intelligent test planning, and apply methods for calculating and analyzing system reliability. The module enhances students’ ability to assess risks, design efficient testing strategies, and interpret the results in the context of product development and quality assurance—skills that are highly relevant in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and medical technology.
Course Structure
The course consists of lectures and practical case studies drawn from industrial applications. It emphasizes the practical use of statistical models like the Weibull distribution and experimental validation techniques. Students apply the concepts learned in realistic scenarios and develop hands-on experience with test planning and reliability modeling. The module concludes with a written exam assessing both theoretical understanding and the ability to apply the concepts in practice.
