Specific course objectives

The course goal is to introduce to the Industrial Measurement techniques through an experimental approach. The most important formative objectives are the knowledge of some general concepts : measurement and measurement uncertainty, as well as the knowledge of analog and digital instrumentation. There will be considered the main methods of measurement for electrical and mechanical quantities, thermals and others in the industrial field, both theoretically and practically.

Course programme

• Metrology
General concepts, measurement unit, measurement uncertainty.

• Instrumentation
Analog and digital instrumentation, signal analysis.

• Electrical measurements
Analog and digital instrumentation, measurement methods

• Mechanical measurements
Length and displacement, speed and acceleration, mass and strength

• Industrial measurements
Thermal, pressure, flow, level.
