I want to tell you that I have gone through many webinars on Accendo Reliability and found them very useful. I am new to Reliability Engineering and very keen to learn it and apply it in my organization. — Ankur Sharma
We record each event and post the video along with the slides or workbook, plus we use the audio for a podcast.
Scheduled for July 14, 2026, at 9 am US Pacific time.
Speaker: Enrico Belmonte
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming engineering workflows, but its true impact may not be where many people expect. AI is increasing engineers’ learning speed, analytical capability, and productivity. Reliability engineering has traditionally required years of experience, deep statistical understanding, and significant software development effort to transform concepts into practical tools. Today, Generative AI combined with modern development environments such as PyCharm and lightweight application frameworks like Streamlit and Dash is changing this paradigm.
This seminar explores how engineers can use Generative AI not only to learn reliability concepts faster, but also to rapidly prototype reliability analyses, generate Python code, build interactive dashboards, and create practical engineering applications with unprecedented speed. Through practical demonstrations, attendees will see how AI can assist with topics such as Weibull analysis, creation of design guidelines, and investigation of damage mechanisms.
The session will also address an essential question: how can engineers responsibly use AI while avoiding hallucinations, incorrect assumptions, and statistical misuse? While AI can significantly accelerate engineering workflows, engineering judgment, validation, and understanding of physics remain fundamental.
Whether you are a reliability engineer, quality engineer, product developer, or technical leader, this seminar will provide practical insights into how AI-assisted engineering workflows may reshape the future of reliability engineering. If you are curious about how Generative AI can become a practical engineering companion rather than just a buzzword, this seminar is for you.

The FMEA landscape is divided. While modern standards push for the matrix-based Action Priority (AP) system, many engineering teams find that the classic Risk Priority Number (RPN) offers simplicity and granular prioritization that AP lacks. So, which one actually works best? In this webinar, we strip away the industry hype to provide an objective, side-by-side comparison of RPN and AP. We will explore the strengths and hidden pitfalls of both—from the math of RPN to the logic tables of AP—giving you the exact criteria you need to decide which framework genuinely fits your organizational culture, resource constraints, and risk tolerance.

Cluster analysis is a powerful unsupervised machine learning technique used to identify meaningful patterns, group similar observations, and uncover hidden structures within complex datasets. This webinar provides an accessible introduction to the principles and methods of cluster analysis and presents applications to business and manufacturing problems, including failure mode investigation and defect classification. No prior experience with machine learning is required.

Wanted to let everyone new to these live events to know that the presentation is scheduled for an hour but afterwards there is always very good discussion. So if you can set aside an extra 15 to 30 minutes afterwards to listen in and contribute. I noticed today that Fred turned off the recording at the one hour mark so the discussion is only available in the live event and not in the recorded version.
Hi Bert, thanks for the comment. I did shut down the recording as I was pretty quiet on the question front. Then Chris did get a few more questions prompting more discussion. Guess it is good reason to make the live event – and a lesson for me to keep recording… cheers, Fred
