A Concept of Teaching Model-Based Condition Monitoring

Abstract Maintaining the technical currency becomes one of the challenging tasks facing industrial professionals. There is a strong need to extend the traditional topics such as feedback control, with topics concerning condition monitoring and automatic fault diagnosis. A framework for disseminating basic underlying knowledge through the life-cycle paradigm is presented. The paper addresses the design requirements and practical guidelines with experimental validation on laboratory test processes. The approach should help the practitioners to better understand the potentials of model-based fault diagnosis in industrial practice.
