Physics of Failure
Instructor: Dr. Julio Pulido

Engineers can only make systems reliable if they understand what makes them unreliable. The physics of failure is an engineering-based approach to reliability that begins with an understanding of materials, processes, physical interactions, degradation, and failure mechanisms, as well as identifying failure models. The training covers the previously described elements of the methodology.

9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Pacific Time
Accelerated Life Testing and ESS Design
Instructor: Dr. Julio Pulido

This course covers the concepts of accelerated reliability testing for electronics, mechanical components, and structural elements using state-of-the-art techniques. Accelerated life testing techniques are critical in helping organizations achieve Time-to-Market goals and reduce the likelihood of design escapes with warranty costs. The class is recommended for Design or Reliability Engineers interested in learning the techniques and fully understanding the method.
