Head of Valeo Corporate Reliability, Past President EU Reliability Environmental Commission
Reliability Engineering for Mechatronic Systems in the Automotive Industry Seminar
This seminar took place on Tuesday 14th May 2019
Automotive Mechatronic systems have seen a significant evolution underpinned by technology advancements in materials, electronics, software and networks, and driven by the ambition to lead on consumer centric innovation and increased levels of autonomy, while improving the safety and environment footprint. In spite of technological and methodological developments in automotive product design and development, and significant advancements in manufacturing ensuring higher standards of quality and uniformity of parts, reliability remains a significant engineering challenge driven by the growing complexity and the interdependence / interconnectivity of systems.
Come and listen to a leading industry expert in reliability - Professor David Delaux (see profile below), Past-President of the European Reliability Confederation CEEES, Head of Valeo Corporate Reliability, Regulation Director and Reliability Senior Expert. David will cover a range of topics on reliability management (project development and warranty risks) and fatigue design of complex systems.
The event will also include a suite of posters and presentation on the Automotive Healthcare Analytics Factory – sharing research insights from the Advanced Automotive Analytics Laboratory.
