RELIABILITY ENGINEERING CENTRE

Reliability Engineering Centre was created with the help of an MHRD- sponsored project during the Fifth Five-Year Plan. The Centre primarily imparts post-graduate level education and research and offers industrial constancy in the area of Reliability Engineering. It takes the pride of offering the first-ever MTech course in Reliability Engineering in 1982 which has produced over 210 postgraduates that includes a large number of sponsored defence officers. The Centre has a well-equipped Environment Test Laboratory and other infrastructure support. The prime objective of the Course is to train engineers with background in various disciplines, in the area of Reliability Engineering, Risk, Safety, and Maintenance Engineering. The Centre offers MTech degree in:

RE     Reliability Engineering

 

Course Contains :

Reliability Analysis and Prediction, Maintenance Engineering, Reliability Design, Reliability Estimation and Life Testing, and Reliability Engineering Laboratory are the core subjects. To make the course more balanced and interdisciplinary, a number of other department elective subjects are included in the curriculum. All students have to take an elective subject in management. Besides this, the centre also offers a number of elective subjects including Statistical Methods in Reliability, Probabilistic Risk Assessment, Statistical Process Control, Environmental Testing and Reliability Demonstration, Failure Data Organisation and Analysis, Performance Engineering for Sustainability, Reliability Centred Maintenance, Maintenance Management, Fault Diagnosis and Predictive Management, Safety Engineering, Human Reliability, Software Reliability, and Reliability Management.

 

Areas of Research

The Centre is actively engaged in research in the following areas:
Failure mechanism and failure analysis of electronic, electrical and mechanical component/devices, Reliability prediction and testing of components and devices, Hazard and safety analysis of systems and devices, condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of machines and plants, Design of cost optimal and performance based maintenance policies, reliability centred maintenance, quality engineering, network reliability, power system reliability, software reliability, Probabilistic risk assesment.
