Confidence Bounds on the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) for a Time-Truncated Test
There is a long standing discussion on how best to calculate the lower and upper confidence bounds on the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) for a time-truncated test (Type I Censoring) assuming that the times between failure are exponentially distributed (constant failure rate).… Read More
FMD-2016 contains field failure mode and mechanism distribution data on a variety of electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical parts and assemblies. This data can be used to assist in the performance of reliability analyses and assessments such as Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).
Compared to its predecessor FMD-2013, FMD-2016… Read More
Maintenance Planning with Wearout Failure Modes
This Reliability Que discusses how Weibull analysis qualitative results showing a wearout failure mode can be utilized to quantitatively drive the decision making process in Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) programs.
RCM Basics
As defined in NAVAIR 00-25-403, “Guidelines for the Naval Aviation Reliability-Centered Maintenance Process”, RCM is “an analytical process to determine… Read More
Quanterion attended MILCOM 2015 in Tampa Florida, the premier international conference for military communications, and chaired the conference’s Secure UAS Communications Technical Panel. Dr. Paul Losiewicz, Quanterion’s Senior Scientific Advisor, organized and moderated the panel discussion which addressed communications security as it relates to the command and control (C2) of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). The… Read More
Maintenance Planning with a Constant Failure Rate
This Reliability Que will discuss an example of how Weibull analysis qualitative results showing a constant failure rate affect the maintenance planning process. The qualitative results can be utilized to quantitatively drive the decision-making process in Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) programs.

As defined in NAVAIR 00-25-403, “Guidelines for the… Read More
Maintenance Planning with Early Failures
This Reliability Que will discuss an example of how Weibull analysis qualitative results showing early failures (Infant Mortality) can be utilized to quantitatively drive the decision making process in Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) programs.
RCM Basics
As defined in NAVAIR 00-25-403, “Guidelines for the Naval Aviation Reliability-Centered Maintenance Process”, RCM is “an analytical… Read More
