Competitive product development is all about reliability, maintainability, and supportability and the earlier that these factors are considered the better. Edited by a mechanical engineer known for his work in product development, reliability, packaging, and supply chain efficiency, this invaluable bestselling resource is now updated to include new optimization methods, as well as the IEEE standards 1332 and 1413 on reliability and reliability prediction. The text presents the latest software tools for reliability evaluation as well as emerging techniques, such as up-rating, burn-in, and screening methods. It also explores the physics of failure in design and testing and the integration of reliability with business considerations.
