Reliability of a K out of N' System
podcast episode with speaker Chris Jackson
We often use the term system reliability modelling' to describe any scenario where we need to somehow convert what we know about component reliability into system reliability in order to make a decision. Some of us might have heard of series systems' that have no redundant components, meaning that the system fails when any component fails. Then there are parallel systems' where the system fails when the last component fails. But then there are K out of N' systems that need K' components out of a total of N' components to work for the system to work. Do you know when K out of N' system reliability looks like series system reliability? or parallel system reliability? or perhaps you don't know what series or parallel system reliability looks like? Then this webinar is for you.
This Accendo Reliability webinar was originally broadcast on 27 February 2024.

Fundamentals of Physics of Failure
Let's consider physics of failure (PoF) models, how to use them, plus how to create them, as a central element of your reliability program.
Fundamentals of Monte Carlo Analysis
The Monte Carlo method is a relatively simple process that permits you to create models that include the naturally occurring variability.
3 Ways to Do Reliability Allocation
Having a reliability target for your product is great. But how does that help all the little design teams? Use subgroup targets.
Reliability Life Models
Failure is a random process. Which means we can't predict with absolute certainty when something will fail. Enter 'reliability life models.'
