Learning outcomes of the course unit

Knowledge on structures, properties and behaviour of various systems, above all technical, on approaches and methods of solving stress-strain, stability and reliability problems of these systems, especially by computational and experimental modelling with application of statistical methods. Basic knowledge on deterministic chaos in behaviour of non-linear dynamic systems.
Students will get abilities of correct and pragmatic formulation of problems concerning technical systems, basic knowledge on the "art of modelling", on effective exploitation of various types of modelling in solving problems, and the ability of investigation of all processes in systems in the sense of the possibility of a deterministic and stochastic chaos.

Prerequisites
