Learn how ART and ADT can reduce cost, time, product recalls, and customer complaints
This
book provides engineers with the techniques and tools they need to use
accelerated reliability testing (ART) and accelerated durability testing
(ADT) as key factors to accurately predict a product's quality,
reliability, durability, and maintainability during a given time, such
as service life or warranty period. It covers new ideas and offers a
unique approach to accurate simulation and integration of field inputs,
safety, and human factors, as well as accelerated product development,
as components of interdisciplinary systems engineering.
Beginning with a comprehensive introduction to the subject of ART and ADT, the book covers:
-
ART and ADT as components of an interdisciplinary systems of systems approach
-
Methodology of ART and ADT performance
-
Equipment for ART and ADT technology
-
ART
and ADT as sources of initial information for accurate quality,
reliability, maintainability, and durability prediction and product
accelerated development
-
The economical results of the usage of ART and ADT
-
ART and ADT standardization
The
book covers the newest techniques in the field and provides many case
studies that illuminate how the implementation of ART and ADT can solve
previously inaccessible problems in the field of engineering, such as
reducing product recalls, cost, and time during design, manufacture, and
usage. Professionals will find the answers to how one can carry out ART
and ADT technology in a practical manner.
Accelerated
Reliability and Durability Testing Technology is indispensable reading
for engineers, researchers in industry, usage, and academia who are
involved in the design of experiments, field simulations, maintenance,
reliabilty, durabilty, accurate prediction, and product development, and
graduate students in related courses.
