Engineering Metrology I (FSI-6SM-K)

Academic year 2022/2023
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Róbert Jankových, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚVSSR all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of this course (Engineering Metrology I) is to familiarize students with the principles of design, function and use of basic kinds of measuring tools in industrial practice. A special attention is paid to the practical needs of the metrological activities for quality control of production.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Subject “Engineering metrology I” enables students to acquire knowledge of basic measuring methods and devices that can be applied in individual technologies. Students learn to solve and implement practical metrology applications both in service and laboratory conditions.
Prerequisites:
Overview of engineering technologies. Basic knowledge of the structure and properties of materials. General knowledge of the International System of Quantities (ISQ) and the International System of Units (SI).
Course contents:

Subject acquaints students with the principles of metrology in the Czech Republic, EU and worldwide. The main accent is placed on teaching the principles of design, function and practical aspects of measurement in industrial and related production.  In the first block, special attention is paid to the measurement of selected parameters of geometric properties of engineering products according to the ISO GPS system.  In the next part of the course, emphasis is placed on methods and technical tools for measurement of pressure, temperature, vibration, noise, technical parameters of liquids and gases, flow and level in industrial practice.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is supplemented by practical laboratory work.
According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
The course-unit credits award is based on attendance at seminars, correct elaboration of computational assignment and active participation in its processing.
The final exam will be composed of written and oral part. It is graded on the ECTS grading scale.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Attendance in lectures is recommended.
Attendance in exercises is compulsory. The attendance to the seminar is regularly checked and the participation in the lesson is recorded. The missed lesson is possible to replace with another study group in the same week. In case, that the lesson does not possible to replace, the student will elaborate the complemental task.
