  16. Fundamentals of Reliability Maturity

    Let’s explore how a group’s culture affects its ability to create a reliable product or system. It’s part how we talk about reliability, what tasks, and tests we do.

  17. Fundamentals of Failure Analysis

    The intent of any failure analysis is to understand the problem well enough to craft and implement short and long-term solutions.

  18. Parts Count Reliability Prediction

    ‘parts count reliability prediction’ is awful. And in this webinar, we will explain why. If this intrigues you, enjoy this episode.

  19. Fundamentals of Regression Analysis

    Let’s explore a few of the limitations, checks, and options when taking a look at some data. Checking assumptions and more.

  20. Software Root Cause Analysis (with Fault Trees)

    Bugs are so common that we know how most of them happen. So we can work out what went wrong to allow that bug to happen.

  21. Fundamentals of Life Estimation

    Let’s explore the range of options available to estimate the life of an item, plus the pros and cons of each method.

  22. Fundamentals of Environmental Testing

    Let’s explore when and how to identify which types of environmental testing should be done so that they add value.

  23. What is Reliability?

    So if you want to find out what reliability actually is (no equations) … this webinar is for you! - it's not MTBF, BTW

  24. Fundamentals of Success Testing

    Let’s examine the success testing approach, the assumptions, benefits and faults. Plus, what other options you may have available

  25. What is Accelerated Life Testing (ALT)?

    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.

  26. Engineering Framework to Assess Equipment Reliability

    Explore the framework to assess equipment reliability for air fin coolers and ensure operational excellence in process plants.

  27. The MTBF Sucks Here’s Why

    Ever heard of the MTBF? A lot of people have. But not many people (truly) understand what it is.

  28. Fundamentals of Derating

    Let’s explore why derating is important, the difference it can make, and a few methods to implement derating with your design team.

  29. What is Weibull Probability Plotting?

    Weibull probability plotting is perhaps the most widespread data analysis tool used in reliability and quality engineering.

  30. Linking Customer Needs to Product Requirements and Robust Design

    Product requirements that have the most impact on customer needs should be considered in your design failure modes and effects analysis (DFMEA)

  31. What are ‘Cut Sets’?

    Reliability engineers are often taught about ‘cut sets.’ But we rarely use them. Many reliability engineers don’t know what they are.

  32. Fundamentals of Metric Monitoring

    Fundamentals of Metric Monitoring podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg Following along the idea stated by Lord Kelvin, “…when you can measure what your are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it…”, we have organizations measuring reliability performance....

  33. Confidence is a Measure of You (not our product)

    Want to understand the only way you should be generating confidence when it comes to reliability engineering?
