Learning Outcomes
1.
Categorize and analyze signals with respect to their static
and dynamic traits and illustrate mathematical model for
measurement system.
2.
Perform successful experiments independently or in a group
and able to estimate the accuracy of measurement.
3.
Design/explain measurement systems and measurement
test plans for engineering applications with emphasis on
uncertainty analyses in the design.
4.
Measure force, torque, strain, temperature, and velocity in
real engineering fields
5.
Justify the use of various sensors and instrumentations used
in monitoring and control of engineering system.
Synopsis
The course provides with in-depth technical knowledge and
background of engineering measurements and equipment for
measurements. The focus is on the necessary elements for the
design of measurement systems and measurement test plans,
with emphasis on the role of statistics and uncertainty analysis in
design. The course helps the students to develop concepts and
decision bases for the design and assessment of measurement
systems and on interpreting the results obtained from such
systems.
