Abstract

The progress within the development of technical products and manufacturing processes leads to complex failure symptoms modes and reliability problems within the product life cycle. This fact is valid in the case of mass production of consumer goods – e.g. automobiles, washing machines – as well as small batch series of capital/industrial goods – e.g. machine tools, power plant components. Especially within the mass production area, consequences are an increasing percentage of damaged products within the product fleet in the use phase, which can lead to garage or recall actions. In the area of capital/industrial goods, the failure consequences can be safety related problems regarding the human population caused by accidents.
