Description

Many organizations could benefit from conducting reliability analysis - the tire recalls and resulting litigation in 2000 illustrating a case-in-point - yet most users appear unaware that their general statistics packages can support reliability efforts. Even six sigma programs typically fail to train Black Belts in reliability techniques. This presentation summarizes the many reliability analysis commands feature n MINITAB Release 13. Basic reliability features in MINITAB will be presented as well as several special topics. The list of possible special topics in nonparametric analysis, right and interval censored data, regression with life data, accelerated life testing, probit analysis, hypothesis testing, system, reliability, and Weibayes analysis.
