Affordable Reliability Engineering (eBook, ePUB)

Life-Cycle Cost Analysis for Sustainability & Logistical Support

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book applies reliability-centered maintenance, engineering economic analysis, and Monte Carlo simulation to enable engineering and management professionals to achieve optimum life-cycle affordability. It presents reliability-centered maintenance from the perspective of design and field sustainment. This text explains the process taken to ensure a design meets specifications and minimizes costs in the process. It gives engineers the knowledge to compare options for minimizing costs while keeping reliability above specifications.

Autorenporträt

Bill Wessels

has over 45 years of experience in system design and sustainability. He currently works at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, where he cofounded the Reliability and Failure Analysis Laboratory and performs basic and applied research in design-for-reliability, reliability-based maintainability, and reliability-based life-cycle economic analysis. Wessels has a BS in engineering from the United States Military Academy at West Point, an MBA in decision sciences from the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, and a PhD in systems engineering from the University of Alabama in Huntsville. He is a registered professional mechanical engineer and a certified reliability engineer.

Daniel S. Sillivant

is a researcher at the University of Alabama in Huntsville performing basic and applied research and investigations in reliability life-cycle modeling for aviation and sensors systems. He is published in peer-reviewed proceedings for the International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition; Reliability, Availability, Maintainability Workshop; and Industry, Engineering, and Management Systems. Sillivant has a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and a master's degree in industrial/reliability engineering from UAH. He has begun his dissertation research in reliability based life-cycle economic modeling for implementation of reliability-centered maintenance. In addition, he holds certificates in Lean Concepts Training and Six Sigma Green Belt.
