Reliability Data
podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg
One role reliability engineers enjoy is that of analyzing data. We have available to us a wide range of statistical methods, yet each does require some form of data. In some cases, we are data rich with almost too much data. In other situations, we are lacking data or have insufficient data.
From vendor data sheets to field returns, we do have a broad array of data sources. Let's explore the common and the not-so-common sources. We will discuss the pros and cons of various sources. Plus, let's examine a few ways to use simulations or models.

Collecting and Analyzing Your Field Data
Let's explore where the data comes from and how to prepare for analysis. Plus, let's discuss some ways to look at your data initially.

Time to Failure Data Analysis for Your Factory Equipment
For repairable items, the mean cumulative function and associated plots provide you with an estimate of the effectiveness of your repairs.

Fundamentals of Weibull Analysis
The Weibull distribution is a versatile tool to analyze time to failure data. Like any tool, it could be wielded well or not so well.

Fundamentals of Field Data Analysis
The design is done, the assembly process is working, now we can focus on answering the question: is the product hitting reliability targets?

Weibull Probability Plotting
Data is only as useful as the information you derive. So would you like to take your Weibull probability plotting skills to the next level?

So what is up with this Bayesian' analysis stuff
Some of you may have heard of Bayesian analysis.' You may think this is something fancy that only universities do.

Fundamentals of Interpreting Test Results
To create test results that are meaningful, we need to both design and execute the test well, then, interpret the results accurately.

How to Take the Guess Work out of Expert Judgment
there are ways you can suck out information from a group of experts in a quantifiable and remarkably accurate way.

What do you see in a ‘Probability’ Plot?
A Weibull plot is a really useful way of quickly looking' at data and being able to see' really useful things.
