Reliability Analysis training programme delivered by Industrial Statistics Research Unit (ISRU) @ Newcastle University Reliability analysis is a fundamental tool for understanding product and system lifetimes. It can lead to improved understanding of product reliability and failure modes, and gives manufacturers a method to inform appropriate warranty periods. Typical Reliability Analysis projects: A pump manufacturing company found that nearly 99% of pumps lasted beyond 100 hours usage before they experienced a first time failure - this allowed an appropriate warranty period to be set A car manufacturing organisation found that on average a new model of car experienced four main forms of major failure during its first ten years of life
