Reliability Education 2011 - 2012 Training Catalog - ReliaSoft

RBI Overview and ApplicationM485 provides an introduction to risk based inspection analysis based on API RP 580/581, withan emphasis on applying ReliaSoft’s RBI software for both qualitative and quantitative analyses.Some of the topics covered include:Purpose of an RBI program and how it differs from traditional inspection techniquesUnderstanding risk as a metricBrief introduction into qualitative analysis using FMEA structure based on API RP 580Limitations of API RP 581Quantitative analysis of probability of failure and consequence of failure for staticequipment based on API RP 581Quantification and analysis of probable riskRecommended inspections between turnaround dates, if requiredHands-on practice with the RBI softwareApplying What You Will LearnM485 presents concepts and software tools that you could use to help your organization:``Understand how risk based inspection can be more efficient in terms of both safety andcost.``Apply risk based inspection analysis by either qualitative or quantitative analysis.Duration: 2 daysCEUs: 1.4 CRP Credits: 2Course Prerequisites``M480AAssumes Basic Knowledge Of``Reliability EngineeringMethods and ConceptsRecommended Prior Course(s)``M480A, M440 or G400Alternative/Similar Course(s)``N/ANext Recommended Course``Any course based on interestSoftware Used``Primary: RBI``Supplemental: N/AD490 provides an overview of standards based reliability prediction techniques, with an emphasison the use of ReliaSoft’s Lambda Predict software. Some of the topics covered include:Overview of standards based reliability predictionUsing Lambda Predict to build a system and generate results/plots based on any of themajor prediction standards:• MIL-HDBK-217, Bellcore/Telcordia and FIDES (for electronic components)• NSWC (for mechanical components)Allocation methods (such as Feasibility of Objective, AGREE, ARINC and others)Derating analysis to point out components that are over the established margin of safetyHands-on practice with the Lambda Predict softwareApplying What You Will LearnD490 presents concepts and software that you could use to help your organization:``````Standards Based Reliability PredictionObtain an initial indication of whether a design will be able to meet reliability objectivesand identify potential problem areas early in development.Compare design alternatives and/or trade-off system design factors.Duration: 2 daysCEUs: 1.4 CRP Credits: 2Course Prerequisites``NoneAssumes Basic Knowledge Of``Reliability EngineeringMethods and ConceptsRecommended Prior Course(s)``N/AAlternative/Similar Course(s)``N/ANext Recommended Course``Any course based on interestSoftware Used``Primary: Lambda Predict``Supplemental: N/AConsider environmental and other stress factors that have a significant impact on system performance yet mayotherwise be overlooked.12
