The Survivorship Bias Principal

The Survivorship Bias Principal

The Survivorship Bias Principal

podcast episode with speaker Adam Bahret

In 1942 the US Air Force needed to figure out a way to get more of their bombers home. They were losing them at an atrocious rate. They made a study of where the returning bombers were being hit, it was a great data set. But they made a big mistake in interpreting that data. It was Abraham Wald, a mathematician, who corrected their assumptions and created the “Survivorship Bias principal.” This principle has changed the way we look at data sets and trends. It is a concept that I apply to field failure data sets regularly. More than once it has caught evidence of core issues that would have otherwise been missed. [Read more…]

Selecting Reliability Engineering Tools

podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg

The toolbox for reliability engineering work is large. We have tools for risk management, data analysis, failure analysis, team building, and more. We touch on material science at the molecular level then shift to assessing a vendor’s reliability program. When you use which tool is critical to your effectiveness. So, how do you determine which tool to use for a given situation?

Let’s explore a few different situations and step through the decision process to determine which tool to employ. You may need to learn how to use a new tool or set of skills, or modify how you use an existing tool, or simply apply what you already know how to do. [Read more…]
