Preliminary agenda: Workshops and presentations
15th October
Introducing nCodeDS: New Technology for Scalable, Streamed Data Analytics
ReliaSoft Track
The Next Generation Simulation Modeling with Process Flow
Presented by HBM Prenscia
Process Flow is an essential model-based tool available in ReliaSoft BlockSim for the visual design and optimization of any technical processes. During this presentation we will demonstrate how to model complex systems with multiple and various flows.
Workshop: Comparison of Test & Field Failure Data Using Weibull++
Presented by HBM Prenscia
Comparing field failures to test data is important to validate testing methods and identify reliability problems early – but how can you accurately identify differences? Attendees of this workshop will learn to calculate reliability metrics using ReliaSoft Weibull++ for both test and field datasets, with a focus on comparison using plotting, reporting and calculation tools.
Using ReliaSoft Desktop and Web Applications to Facilitate Analysis
Presented by HBM Prenscia
Implementing ReliaSoft SEP together with other ReliaSoft applications provides convenient, mobile access to key reliability analysis results and helps to facilitate cooperation across different areas of expertise.
Workshop: Durability Testing, Reliability, and Failure Mode Comparison
Durability tests are an important part of product validation, but how can they be extended to proving reliability? This joint nCode and ReliaSoft workshop will explore how to create an equivalent damage test spec using nCode GlyphWorks software, and then introduce reliability demonstration to this testing. Further, you will explore new ways to compare test results with field failures using ReliaSoft Weibull++ software.
16th October
Aqira: Democratization and Application to CAE
Presented by Jon Aldred, HBM Prenscia
Discover how Aqira enables easy to use engineering apps to be shared with less-expert users, with particular focus in this presentation on CAE applications using nCode DesignLife.
Predicting the Fatigue Life of Welds with WholeLife
Presented by HBM Prenscia
WholeLife uses an integrated approach to model fatigue over the entire lifetime of the component – from crack initiation to crack growth – to give a more accurate determination of weld life. This presentation provides a brief overview of this new total-life approach which has been evaluated and validated by the SAE International Fatigue Design and Evaluation committee as part of a multi-year research project involving a team of industry-wide durability experts.
FEA-Test Comparison with Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) Analysis
Presented by Fred Kihm, HBM Prenscia
This presentation focuses on how the new MAC analysis capability in nCode VibeSys is used to validate finite element models and how to correctly capture all mode shapes of interest using virtual sensors.
ReliaSoft Track
Maintenance Optimization Tools in ReliaSoft BlockSim and RCM++
Presented by HBM Prenscia
Learn how with ReliaSoft BlockSim and RCM++, preventive maintenance optimization can transform your maintenance program into an effective and efficient system of continuous improvement.
Workshop: Accelerated Life Testing Analysis Using ALTA
Presented by HBM Prenscia
With ever-faster product development cycles, companies are becoming more interested in accelerated life testing. Workshop attendees will use ReliaSoft ALTA to analyze accelerated test data and learn how experienced ALT practitioners can improve results by optimizing stress levels and sample allocation.
Workshop: System Reliability Analysis Using BlockSim
Presented by HBM Prenscia
As products become more complex, identifying the next step to improve reliability becomes less clear. This workshop will teach attendees how ReliaSoft BlockSim’s reliability allocation analysis capability can be used to prioritize improvements, and in the process cover system reliability calculation using data from the previous workshops.
Improving Reliability through Warranty Analysis
This presentation will demonstrate the importance of the effective warranty data analysis, common challenges faced and what benefits ReliaSoft Weibull++ can bring to the table.
