METHOD FOR EXAMINING A FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF A TECHNICAL SYSTEM AND EVALUATION UNIT

摘要

The invention relates to a method for investigating a functional behavior of a technical system (2) comprising a plurality of components (4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16) and based on technical dependencies of the components (4, 6, 8, 10 , 12, 14, 16) resulting system structure. In order to achieve an improved method, it is proposed that, based on the system structure of the several components (4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16) technically similar components (10) are determined, the technically gleichverhaltenden components (10) under Grouping of their functional behavior into clusters (22, 24, 26) and technical dependencies of the cluster elements of at least one of the clusters (22, 24, 26) are determined.
