Reliability engineering: concepts, theories and application
This course is designed to provide participants with concepts, principles and process knowledge of reliability engineering and management. It surveys the elements of system performance assessment, describes the reliability theories and their applications to define the optimal requirements and sizing of a robust product during the design and development phase.

You will learn
Upon successful completion of the course, you will be able to:
- Demonstrate an in-depth understanding of the fundamental concepts, principles, and process skills of reliability engineering and management.
- Use appropriate reliability techniques and methods to identify and prevent dominant failure modes; to eliminate or reduce the probability of the event occurring at a reduced cost.
- Perform both parametric and non-parametric reliability models to analyse failures and test data to estimate the reliability of both new designs and existing products.
- Perform reliability growth analysis and assess the improvement in a product's reliability due to changes in the product's design.
- Design and plan for an effective reliability test to determine if the product will meet a specified reliability target and time.
- Determine optimal reliability-based maintenance strategies to fulfill system functions.
- Gain an understanding of fault reporting analysis and corrective action systems.
- Define the building blocks for reliability requirements management
- Gain knowledge of the basics of warranty modelling and management.
Arrangement
