Chair’s Note In this Edition
Marc Banghart, Chair Reliability Division of ASQ [email protected] Dear members, As we enter the final quarter of 2017 the Division is finaliz-ing our business plans for
2018. We have an exciting 2018 planned, to in-clude development of a new conference in antic-ipation of our 50th anniversary. I would also like to welcome Dan Burrows as our new Chair for 2018-2020. Dan has tremendous experience in the reliability engineering field and is planning several interesting initiatives. More to follow in subsequent newsletters! As mentioned in our previous newsletter, the Di-vision name has changed to the Reliability and Risk Division. As part of our name change we are launching several initiatives in the last quarter of 2017. These include: Expanding www.asqrd.org to include content relevant to risk professionals. Addi onal web domain names related to risk. Development of training curriculums both for entry level and experienced reliability and risk
professionals. Training curriculums will be free to members of the Division. Revamping our home page to more easily connect users with technical content.
I look forward to the remainder of 2017 and appreciate all the volunteer and member support during my term. The Division also sends its thoughts, sympathy, and wishes for a speedy recovery to the Houston area. Thank you and have a great Fall!

The Certified Reliability Engineer Handbook 3rd Edition is available now. This handbook is ful-ly updated to the 2018 Body of Knowledge for the Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE), includ-ing the new sections on leadership, performance monitoring, root cause analysis, and quality tri-angles. Its purpose is to assist individuals preparing for the examination and to provide a refer-ence for the practitioner. Several “typical” examples are provided throughout based on the collec-tive experience and knowledge of the authors and editor.
The chapters and sections are numbered by the same format used in the Body of Knowledge (BoK) for the CRE examination. It also includes a comprehensive glossary of reliability-related terms and appendices with, among other things, various useful distribution tables.
The following individuals are to be recognized as contributing chapter authors for this handbook: David Auda, Jim Breneman, Dan Burrows, Mark Durivage, Tim Gaens, and Rong Pan. By using several individual subject matter experts, the overall quality and technical content of this hand-book has been greatly enhanced.
Proceeds from the sale of the Handbook will help support the outreach activities of the Reliabil-

CALL FOR PAPERS
$1000 Annual Award for Best RELIABILITY
Paper Continuing in 2017-2018, the ASQ Reliabil-ity Division will admin-ister a $1000 annual award for the Best Relia-bility Paper published on Quality Engineering. To be eligible for the award, at least one of the au-thors of the paper must be a member of the ASQ Reliability Division at the time when their pa-per was published. The reliability focused papers appearing in the four is-sues from July 2017 to June 2018 will be con-sidered. For more infor-mation, please contact Prof. Rong Pan at [email protected].
I am pleased to announce the paper entitled “Bayesian Analysis of Step-Stress Ac-celerated Life Tests and Its Use in Planning”, authored by Dr. Michael Hamada and published on Quality Engineering, 27:276–282, 2015, has won the 2015-2016 ASQ RD Best Reliability Paper Award. The award plaque was presented to Dr. Hamada by Trevor Craney, the former Chair of ASQ RD, in the RAMS conference at Orlando, FL, in January, 2017. In his paper, Dr. Hamada illustrated the use of a modern Bayesian computational method called Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) on analyzing step-stress accelerated life testing (SSALT) data and discussed some aspects of test planning. The paper provided practical advices on how to build the SSALT model and how to develop Bayesian inference on model parameter. One of the ASQ Reliability Division’s missions is to encourage the publication of reliability papers that are both technically sound and easy to be understood by reliability pro-fessionals. In this paper, Dr. Hamada introduced the advanced Bayesian inference method to readers by using a concrete engineering example and the clean and ac-cessible writing style.
Quality Engineering is a technical journal of ASQ published by Taylor & Francis. It is directed to professionals in all engineering and management fields interested in quality improvement and reliability. For additional information of ASQ RD Best Paper Award, please contact Dr. Rong Pan at [email protected].

HybridProbabilisticPhysicsofFailureEvaluationofReliabilityinMemsDevicesBy:MohammadPourgol‐Mohammad,Email:[email protected]
Reliability is critical in MEMS devices design and production. Probabilistic physics of failure is pro-posed in this research for evaluation of MEMS devices reliability. Failure mechanisms are evaluated for determining the most common failures. Accordingly, a deterministic model is selected for the anal-ysis of the life and reliability for the dominant failure mechanisms. By identification of the uncertainty sources affecting dielectric lifetime, the deterministic model is converted to a probabilistic model. This model is simulated by utilization of the Monte Carlo method. The result of life estimation is then up-dated using the Bayesian method. As a case study, a framework is developed for reliability evaluation of the MEMS devices with capacitive RF MEMS switches. Results of FMEA show that stiction caused by dielectric charging, is the main failure mode in RF MEMS capacitive switches due to the presence of a high electric field across the dielectric and existence of point defects in these materials. Finally, the results of life estimation are updated using the Bayesian method. This research was conducted by Mo-
