Recorded Webinars: Failure Rate Analysis Paralysis
Reliability engineers understand that many variables impact product failure rates. Some have even spent hundreds of hours to do an FMEDA on an electronic module. How does one know how far to go? How can an engineering process and a component reliability database be organized to get optimal results? This webinar explains a multi-layer iterative approach used by exida. Good, somewhat conservative, results are obtained in the first pass. Then, if justified, further analysis done on key variables is done to refine results. It is explained how FMEDA analysis can become quite practical.

Blog Entry: Failure Rate Analysis Paralysis
Reliability Engineering experts know there are many variables that impact operational failure rates. These variables even include how operations and maintenance are done at a specific site. Sometimes it feels like there are so many variables that no realistic failure rate can ever be predicted without a few hundred hours…

Recorded Webinars: High and Continuous Demand LOPA Considerations
Using Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) for low demand scenarios in process safety applications is relatively straightforward. Recently LOPA is also being applied more and more to high demand and continuous mode safety functions as functional safety practices expand into machine automation. Using semi quantitative risk analysis techniques such as LOPA, can add a lot of value to high demand and continuous mode risk analysis. However, there are a number of potential issues which must be properly handled to avoid dangerous mistakes. This webinar will focus on how to correctly apply LOPA to high demand and continuous mode safety function risk analysis and manage these issues. The webinar will also provide guidance on how LOPA fits in with the requirements of the various safety standards and other risk analysis methods.
