What is Accelerated Life Testing (ALT)?
podcast episode with speaker Chris Jackson
Well … it’s all in the name … isn’t it. Or is it? Do you know what the difference is between Highly Accelerated Life Testing or Accelerated Life Testing? Do you know what an ‘acceleration factor’ is? Do you know what a ‘failure mechanism’ is? If the answer is no … this webinar will help. Or perhaps you want to estimate the reliability of something that is supposed to last a long time, but don’t have a lot of time to test. Then this webinar can help. Or perhaps all this is good … but you’re scared of complicated equations. Again … this webinar can help!
This Accendo Reliability webinar was originally broadcast on 24 June 2025.
