Your Reliability Engineering Professional Development Site
We can make a guess, some assumptions, or conduct an experiment. In fact, we use engineering judgment, and prudent assumptions to create our experiments that lead to understanding time to failure information. Accelerated life testing, ALT, is one of the most complex and important types of experiments we conduct. It involves samples, failure mechanisms, stress, measurements, and statistics. [Read more…]
In this podcast, we invite John Saldatos a thought leader in the space of digital technology from Greece to cover basic understanding and application of some of the major technologies coming our way. We cover topics like blockchain, AI, AR/VR, 5G, and scratch the surface on quantum computing. If you are a tech nerd like me, this will be a great podcast, I hope you enjoy it!

Episode 59: My guest, Eric Fossum is best known for the invention of the CMOS image sensor better known as the “camera-on-a-chip” used in billions of cameras, from smart phones to web cameras to ingestible pill cameras to DSLRs.
In 2017, Eric was a co-recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering, the world’s top engineering prize (and considered by many as equivalent to the Nobel Prize) for the invention of digital imaging sensors.
Eric was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame and is member of the National Academy of Engineering. He is a solid-state image sensor device physicist and engineer, and his career has included academic and government research, and entrepreneurial leadership of several startups. He is the John H. Krehbiel Sr. Professor of Emerging Technologies at the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth college. Eric also serves as Associate Provost of Dartmouth College for Entrepreneurship and Technology Transfer, and directs Dartmouth’s PhD Innovation Programs.
Eric recently co-founded another startup with his former students, Gigajot Technology, Inc.
We’re pleased to have Fred Schenkelberg back with us. He’s a reliability engineering and management consultant with a background in product development. He’s also been a manufacturing engineer and shift supervisor working in a factory and helped found AccendoReliabilty.com. Fred will give us more insight into RAM Modeling.
Fred will give us insight on:

We’re excited to have Lucas Marino back. He works at Amentum and is the owner of the East Partnership. He’s also working on the book Level of Repair Analysis. In the past, he spent many years in logistics engineering and the coast guard. Lucas will be delving into Project Management as a vital aspect of any maintenance or reliability professional’s role.
Some of the important insights include:

Carl and Fred discussing the principles of teaching reliability, whether it is sharing knowledge to a small number of people or formally instructing a larger group of engineers. ᐅ Play Episode
Chris and Fred discuss ‘why’ leadership. Not why leadership is important (we know it is). But the sort of leadership that focuses on the ‘why’ of an organization or group of people. ‘Why’ people who work at these organizations get out of bed in the morning. ‘Why’ customers purchase products or services from an organization. And if we get the ‘why’ right … everything becomes a lot easier. Especially reliability.

Can we accurately measure the remaining useful life of our equipment? The better question might be can we predict an event in the future that causes poor equipment operations leading to equipment failure, quality issues, and loss of efficiency.
On this week’s episode of Technology Innovation, a Maintenance Disrupted Podcast, Blair welcomes Nikunj Mehta and Dan Kearns from Falkonry. In this podcast we discuss the theory behind estimating RUL and some of the considerations and approaches to successful RUL estimation.

We’re pleased to have Geraldo, the principal consultant at Eruditio. He spends a lot of time doing reliability activities like instructing and consulting, among others. He started his engineering career in 2008 and spent more than ten years in oil and gas in roles related to reliability and maintenance engineering. He’s also talked at presentations and contributed to articles on Machine Learning and Artificial intelligence, which is the topic we’ll dive into.
In this episode, we will be discussing:

Chris and Fred discuss ‘Problem #5.’ What is problem #5? Well … technically it isn’t a problem at all. Which is what we want to be doing as reliability engineers. Preventing problems from occurring. Most people look at reliability engineers as (perhaps at best) addressing field failures or failures in the hands of the customers. But reliability engineering is much more valuable than that. Reliability engineering prevents you from not meeting budget or not achieving scheduled milestones. In fact … field failures (which are what we call ‘Problem #1’) are incidental to good reliability engineering. Want to learn more?
