Additional Prediction Features
Many more features and functions are available within Windchill Prediction. A brief listing of other topics of interest is shown below. To learn more about these features, see the help.
• You can perform reliability predictions using current prediction standards, including MIL-HDBK-217, Telcordia, PRISM, 217Plus, HRD5, RDF 2000, IEC TR 62380, NSWC Mechanical, Chinese 299, Siemens SN 29500, and FIDES.
• You can combine models within a Project and apply MTBF adjustment techniques such as PRISM Process Grades and Telcordia calculation methods for high-powered analyses.
• You can use Prediction Derating files to store minimum and maximum derating criteria for part types.
• You can use Prediction Defaults files to store part parameter values for part types.
• You can use Prediction Values Library files to store your own user-defined environments and quality levels.
• You can use Mission Profile files to store data associated with various mission phases, including dormancy information and the total mission time.
• You can use Prediction Parts Library files to store part data for custom parts, thereby supplementing the supplied Prediction Parts Library files.
• You can use Prediction Correlation Library files to search library components based on in-house part numbers rather than manufacturer part numbers.
• You can use Prediction Process Grade files to store scoring profiles, which translate total scores into quantitative Pi-factor multipliers that impact predicted failure rates.
• You can use Prediction Bayesian files to store test and field data that you want to use to modify predicted failure rates for more real-world predicted values.
