Synopsis: This book describes how reliability can be embedded into the product development using a design methodology that uses parametric accelerated lifecycle testing (ALT) .The book has these features:• A new reliability methodology, based on inferential statistics, that can determine whether the reliability of a mechanical/civil system is achieved.• A unique reliability methodology to prevent reliability disasters in new mechanical products in the field, e.g., automobiles and airplanes.• Robust design methodology of mechanical/civil product to withstand a variety of loads.• Explanation of an alternative experimental Taguchi methodology.• Discussion of how parametric ALT can also be used to predict product reliability—lifetime and failure rate.• Detailed case studies that demonstrate parametric ALT methodology.This book will be useful for senior-level undergraduate and graduate students, professional engineers, college and university-level lecturers, researchers, and design managers in mechanical and civil engineering.
