Review: The six chapters in this book are based on a seminar held in Birmingham in December 2000. The authors look at how designers can produce systems that will achieve the required standards of performance in a wide range of conditions, without adversely affecting production costs or delivery times. They cover: a design for rela9ibility methodology that is basically a visual, integrated, flexible and user-friendly knowledge management ‘toolkit’; reliability assessment using Bayesian networks; the interaction between engineering and statistical science in achieving reliability improvement; design verification using customer-correlated life modelling; comparing fatigue testing and fatigue calculation; and the use of reliability and robustness in Jaguar programmes.
