Decision Type: Measurement
Method Category: Assurance, Verify that reliability requirements are met
Categories: Methods

An approach in which one attempts to model a real-world system by representing key characteristics using different conditions over time. Simulation modeling for engineering analysis is often less expensive than creating prototypes.

  • Physics of failure
    The approach for the design and development of a reliable product to prevent failure. The approach is based on knowledge of root causes of failure mechanisms using failure-mechanism-based models or simulation tools. In PoF, a set of failure-mechanism-specific models useful when designing for reliability is constructed.
