The field of reliability redundancy allocation optimisation (RRAO) is dedicated to enhancing the overall dependability of complex engineering systems by systematically selecting and allocating ...

Decreased system reliability due to overloaded power supplies is a common engineering challenge. In this Q&A-style article submitted by Allied Electronic & Automation, David Norton, technical ...

High availability can no longer be an afterthought for designers building a piece of telecom and wireless equipment. Downtime means lost revenue, and that's something few can afford in a tight market.

Corded equipment often gets left out of high-reliability planning. To build highly available electrical infrastructures, you need redundant components like power distribution units (PDUs), UPSs, and ...

Steps engineers can take to help mitigate power outage impacts. Paths to PLC redundancy. Paths to PAC redundancy. How can a dual Ethernet ring help with resilience? Power outages are becoming more ...

The power industry is undergoing massive transformational change with the emergence of renewables, battery storage, smart grids, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, and more. Perhaps the timing is right ...

An interesting discussion has emerged about the resistance of various kinds of system-level ICs to single-event upset (SEU) and whether this is an important to system reliability. It has been widely ...

And the reason for this is because there is so much at stake.” Cars and planes need to be extremely reliable because people ...

Emerson has released its ASCOTM 141 Series Advanced Redundant Control System (ARCS) to provide a redundant solution for a variety of emergency shutdown valve applications, such as those found in the ...
