Description:
Reliability engineering is an established science with rigorous concepts involving mathematical and statistical methods, and those can often appear daunting for some maintenance or risk practitioners. The role of the reliability engineer is to master, explain, and apply those concepts as well as work with peers to make the correct decision(s) regarding the maintenance of operating assets or future design capabilities. Those decisions are crucial, especially when it comes to the safety of frontline workers, capital investments, or the preservation of the environment. This presentation defines the role of the reliability engineer (mainly in an owner/operator environment) but also helps non-reliability practitioners understand some of the basic tools used in this field. The term reliability is often generalized and not fully understood, so this presentation will help to clarify its definition and intent. Misinterpretation or incorrect calculations involving equipment life characteristics—such as mean time to failure, bathtub curves, or failure probabilities—will be covered. We’ll also explain some of the most commonly used concepts in reliability engineering calculations, as well as potential pitfalls encountered such as oversimplifying, applying incorrect analytical approaches, or mixing terms such as availability and reliability. The presentation will also define the “true” and “value-added” role of reliability engineering in an industrial environment and how it productively interfaces with other teams involving maintenance engineering, risk management, or spare parts management.
