Reliability and safety are two inter-relatable terms that define the overall effectiveness of any working system ― be it an electrical system, mechanical system, or a combination of both. The concept ...

How can systems be designed to guard against unexpected downtime? How does system reliability impact product development? In what ways can artificial intelligence and machine learning improve system ...

It's hard to talk about a networking, telecom, or wireless box architecture today without mentioning reliability. With traditional telecommunication operators once again taking the point in the ...

In today’s world, so-called “high-performance, sustainable” facilities are a dime a dozen. But many of these buildings rely on overly complex mechanical systems to carry out their mission. While these ...

The demand for high-power UPS systems is driven by the growth of compute-intensive applications and the ongoing need for reliable power solutions, including services and applications to support AI ...

Here’s a way to calculate the reliability for designs with several subsystems. • Weibull plots fit a curve through data, not data to a predetermined distribution’s curve. • After evaluating subsystems ...

The existing overhead electrical distribution system in the eastern United States was primarily built out in the mid-20th century. It was designed and built to a standard that does not necessarily ...

With the start of the 2023 hurricane season and record-breaking heat already setting up another concerning wildfire season in the Western U.S., it is hard to ignore extreme weather events and natural ...

Nearly all engineers have some knowledge of the well-established reliability curve for most components. There's the initial, relatively high “infant-mortality” rate, usually followed by a long period ...
