This course is aimed at learning the most current technologies, techniques and methods of evaluation and identification of damage in structures and machines, with the most common framework of predictive maintenance and learning of faults and their symptoms in industrial equipment. By learning technologies, techniques and methods should be understood to understand the physical principles that underlie the knowledge and some practice with the equipment and sensors used, the knowledge of the meaning of each of the parameters sensitive to the damage that can be used and the understanding and practical application of the methodology for detection and diagnosis in each technology.
Students acquire skills to use in practice the different technologies, most commonly used in industry for the identification and assessment of the state of damage in machines and structures and to define a maintenance program for condition monitoring.
