Design of Mechanical Systems. Accelerated Lifecycle Testing and Reliability (en Inglés) - Seongwoo Woo

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 alsobe 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.
