RELIABILITY PREDICTION
RELIABILITY PREDICTION
Reliability prediction is a systematic process used to estimate the reliability of a product or system before it is built or deployed. It involves analyzing the components, their failure rates, and the expected operational environment to make predictions about the overall reliability of the system. Reliability predictions help engineers and designers identify potential weak points in the design and take proactive measures to improve the product’s reliability, safety, and performance. Various mathematical models and tools, such as MIL-HDBK-217, FIDES, and Telcordia SR-332, are used for conducting reliability predictions.
PROCESS STEPS IN RELIABILITY PREDICTION (PART COUNT METHOD) :
- Project System Configuration: Clearly define the system configuration or project for which reliability prediction is required
- Temperature and Environment Factor: Are crucial considerations in reliability prediction, as they can significantly impact the performance and longevity of systems and components
