    Hie Team
    I am working on data with two variables namely ; soybean_variety and variety_attributes. there are four soybean varieties and nine quality attributes, and I have 103 responses. numeric values have been assigned to both soybean_varieties(1-4) and variety_attributes (1-9). I have used the following STATA commands to transpose the data: “xpose, clear varname format” “xpose, clear varname format”. however, I have the problem in figuring out the STATA command for Kendall’ W after transposing the data. Again, does kendall’s W work on data like in my case?

    Urgent please

    Thanks Researchers

      Hi John,

      not sure this is the right place for this question – might be better asking where the readers regular use and support STATA.

      Cheers,

    Hello Fred,

    Just realized that I had known you from the HP days, though we had not really worked together. I worked with the VCD/DPT Vancouver teams, and I was part of the Singapore design center. WIth HP for 10+ years, until I figured I had to pursue my love for engineering elsewhere! Good to be back in touch!

    I am starting to ramp up my understanding on electronics reliability for automotive applications now. And hence my interest in your website. I freelance / consult for start up companies on electronics design and product development, and I am based in India. At the moment, I am helping build up base failure rates for a company, and I am also exploring physics of failure tools for predictive analysis of electronic systems.

    Regards,
    Rajaram

      Hi Mauricio,

      Welcome to Accendo Reliability and I’d start learning about FTA and from there look for resources and examples that might be in the literature.

      On Accendo Reliability we have a few articles – mostly basic introduction pieces – https://accendoreliability.com/?s=fault+tree

      and you may find the NASA document on FTA of interest https://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.accendoreliability.com/nasa-fault-tree-handbook-with-aerospace-applications.pdf

      Cheers,

    Dear all,

    First of all I am glad to be part of this community. Being active as FMEA-Moderator and -Facilitator for almost 20 years requires also kind of a recheck of my own vision on FMEA and to compare it with vision and inside of others.

    Would love to ask some FMEA-related questions over here…

      Hi Yunus,

      Glad to have you with the community – with your experience, please consider contributing content to share your knowledge as well as learning from others.

      On FMEA – a great place to review what the site has and ask questions (there is an Ask Carl form near the bottom of the page) at
      https://accendoreliability.com/fmea-resources/

      This was originally done as a reference resource to supplement Carl’s book yet it also is a great starting point for those interested in the topic of FMEA in general.

      Enjoy

      cheers,

      Fred

      Hi Kyone,

      thanks for exploring Accendo Reliability. The fields of project management and the area of procurement and supply chain management are large and important areas of study. While quality, safety, risk management, and reliability practices certainly are part of those fields of interest, there is much more to them than is covered here.

      As a start, check out the articles by Tim Rodgers in https://accendoreliability.com/on-leadership-career/managing-in-the-2000s/

      enjoy

      Hi Ebenezer, thanks for the note. Yes, there is a lot to learn in the fields of project management and logistics & supply chain management. While the topics we cover at Accendo Reliability support those fields, we do tend to focus on a limited set of fields and try to provide excellent and comprehensive information.

      cheers,
