Public Event 2 – Mechanical design, uncertainties and tolerances

The second Public Event will be online on June 14-15th, 2021. It is entitled “Mechanical design, uncertainties and tolerances”, and it is organized jointly by University of Naples and Powerflex.


About this event

This LIVE-I public training event is based on nine lectures scheduled in two days. The presentations discuss the general problem of the design of complex systems versus uncertainties and tolerances. The overall focus is on the design and optimization of gearboxes with also a specific industrial viewpoint. Nevertheless, some methodological aspects, useful for common complex systems, are addressed by the speakers as, for example, the use of non-deterministic approaches for system optimization, non-linear diagnostics, stochastic degradation models for reliability and maintenance applications. Therefore, the speakers are key experts for the technological or scientific areas analyzed and discussed in each presentation.
