Reliability Prediction Best Practices

Abstract

Andre and Fred discuss best practices in reliability prediction — if they exist. Specifically, the poor ability of parts count prediction approaches to estimate future reliability performance.

Key Points

Join Andre and Fred as they discuss

Topics include:

• Use physics of failure approach for predictions
• Get the design right with the right investment, rather than spend to fix it later
• The questions to ask to get good reliability information

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques, to field data analysis approaches.
