Metrology Legal and Industrial (FSI-9MLV)

Academic year 2020/2021
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Róbert Jankových, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚVSSR all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech or English
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the subject “Metrology Legal and Industrial “ is the acquisition of theoretical and practical knowledge of legal and industrial metrology in a way, that enables the PhD students to independently solve scientific tasks in the area.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The student will gain extensive and complex knowledge of legal and industrial metrology, which will enable them to solve related problems in industrial practice with erudition.
Prerequisites:
Knowledge of basic metrology, manufacturing technology and materials, physics and applied statistics.

Course contents:
The subject is aimed at mastering of metrology in industrial enterprises with focus on functional inspection of products and organizational and technical background of the control processes. The students will familiarize themselves with the principles of calibration and verification of various instruments. Students will also understand the rules for measurement of industrial product dimensions, deviations of form and position, and evaluation of the texture of functional surfaces. Students will master formulation of requirements for inspection equipment for specific applications as well as the criteria for evaluation of industrial testing laboratories.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The subject is taught in lectures, which explain the basic principles and theories of the discipline.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Examination from the field of this cource curriculum and its application in the semestral work.
Controlled participation in lessons:
The subject is carried out as lectures and consultations, attendance is controlled.
