Power Electronics for Mechanical Engineers .5 Day | Classroom Seminar I.D.# C1420 This four-hour short course provides an overview of Power Electronics (PE) in use in modern transport aircraft. This course includes the context, principles, design drivers, and the main PE components of various flight applications, including those for harsh environments. This course is designed to deliver and demystify the basic theories and best practices of mechanical, electronics, thermal management, safety, reliability and maintainability disciplines. In addition, future trends in Power Electronics will be discussed. Learning Objectives By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Explain and evaluate the use of the power electronics in various aircraft systems • Identify and explain the various PE architectures • Identify the main requirements and technical drivers to develop PE units • Identify the various components of PE equipment • •Evaluate lessons learned from existing PE products flying in various commercial aircraft Who Should Attend This seminar is designed for engineers, in particular “mechanical” engineers, executives, and other key personnel with little or no previous electronics knowledge or experience. The information presented in this course will also benefit individuals from the production and support disciplines, including airlines and mainte- nance repair organizations.

Systems Engineering for Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) Systems 1 Day | Classroom Seminar I.D.# C1866 Most complex systems are moving toward a “smart” solution, with automated methods for identifying and diagnosing problems. This course will explore how efficient systems can be designed in an effective manner to ensure that they meet performance requirements. Because predictive maintenance is important to the aerospace industry, this course will address systems engineering (SE) and review prognostic health management (PHM) and explain how you can utilize them to obtain a better system. Additionally, it will address require- ments management; model-based design; and verification and validation. Learning Objectives By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Identify basic systems engineering terminology and methods • Recognize the fundamentals of PHM systems • Summarize why PHM design and development is fundamentally tough in today’s industrial setting • Explain how SE can help with PHM design and development Who Should Attend This course is designed for engineers in the aviation industry who would benefit from learning how to apply principles associated with systems engineering (SE) and design, verification and validation, model- based design and analysis, and prognostic health management (PHM). Topical Outline DAY ONE • Introduction to Systems Engineering and Prognostic Health Management • Importance of Systems engineering (SE) • History and applications of SE • Differentiating Prognostic Health Management (PHM) from other disciplines • Applying SE to PHM • Requirements of management and methodology • Importance of stakeholders to PHM • Architecture and design Prerequisites Bachelor of Engineering
