Reliability analysis … now what? Part 4

Reliability analysis … now what? Part 4

Reliability analysis … now what? Part 4

Speaker: Chris Jackson

This is the fourth in our webinar series ‘Reliability Analysis … now what?’ We have examined how to turn a bunch of data points (like the different failure points of devices under test) into something simple, useful, and sometimes beautiful! This is something that commercial software can’t do.

We have looked at how we can create this thing called the ‘likelihood’ that covers the probability of different ‘ways’ our failures can be explained. And we essentially create a ‘posse’ of these different ‘ways’ we can describe our data based on how likely they are. And that is what this thing called Markov Chain – Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation can do for us. In the last webinar, we looked at what MCMC is. And now it is time for us to ask our computers to do the heavy work

So in this webinar, we show you how to get your computer to help you give useful reliability information to your boss, manager, director, or whoever it will be that thinks you are a star for removing all the ‘black magic’ of reliability!

This Accendo Reliability webinar originally broadcast on 24 November 2020.

About Christopher Jackson

Chris is a reliability engineering teacher ... which means that after working with many organizations to make lasting cultural changes, he is now focusing no developing online, avatar-based courses that will hopefully make the 'complex' art of reliability engineering into a simple, understandable activity that you feel confident of doing (and understanding what you are doing).

    Fred/Chris,
    The link for the pdf of the slides for the 4th webinar does not appear to be working.

    Thanks for doing these. These are great.

    Mark

      This is the response I get when I click the link.

      No need to post these comments. I figured this was the best way to get back to you on the link issue.

        Hi Mark, thanks for the note and details – the permissions are correct, it was (I believe) the URL on the site that I got wrong). Anyway, it should be working now – may need to clear cache.

        cheers,

        Fred
