Reliability trend yes Weibull analysis no
Building a Weibull model from a sample of data that covers a prolonged duration assumes that all failure times observed are “independently and identically distributed” (iid). That means that no change occurred in the inherent reliability of the item over … Continue reading
The role of media in living RCM
MESH LRCM provides an image gallery associated with each Failure Mode. The reason for this feature is directly related to practical Reliability Analysis (RA) which is why it is unique to LRCM. It is essential, for purposes of RA that … Continue reading
