Synopsis:
During the course of its relatively short history, the reliability engineering has gone through many transformations in order to meet the requirements of industry. The achievements are overwhelming nevertheless, there are new challenges constantly proposed by consumer, manufacturer and regulatory parties that need to be overcome in the future applications. In this lecture, a brief historical review on formation and rise of reliability engineering as an independent engineering discipline is presented and some important principles are discussed through example applications.
About the Lecturer:
Dr. Reza Azarkhail is a faculty research assistant in Reliability Engineering Program at Mechanical Engineering Dept. in University of Maryland at College Park. His research areas include probabilistic risk assessment and management, physics-based reliability modeling, accelerated life testing, applications of Bayesian statistics in reliability, uncertainty analysis, importance measures of risk and risk-based design of structures and complex mechanical systems. He has received his bachelor and master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering at Thermal and fluids & Energy Conversion from Sharif University of Technology, and master’s and Ph.D. degrees in Reliability Engineering from University of Maryland at College Park.
Dues: $15 per person, $5 for students (including dinner)
