Bearing and gear failure analysis

Understand the causes of gear and bearing failures in order to better prevent them. Implement appropriate corrective actions using a structured failure analysis approach.

Course Overview

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the different types of bearing deterioration and be able to identify the causes of failure
  • Understand the different types of gear deterioration and be able to identify the causes of failure

Teaching Methods

  • Teaching method alternating theory and practice through case studies or tutorials.

Targeted Skills

  • Be able to examine bearing and gear deterioration after operation

Assessment Methods

  • Final multiple-choice questionnaire
