受科技处、信息与电气工程学院邀请，美国阿肯色大学首席教授Haitao Liao（廖海涛）访问我校，并将于7月4日（周三）9:00在H楼410会议室做学术报告，题目为：Data Analysis of Accelerated Tests: Solutions and New Challenges。

    报告内容：随着制造工艺、配方、设备的不断更新，产品的可靠性获得了极大提升，受限于测试成本以及测试周期的严格限制，传统的可靠性试验已经难以应用于实际中。加速寿命试验作为一种有效的测试加速方法，被广泛应用于实际的可靠性评估应用中。在报告中，Haitao Liao教授对其所领导的科研团队在此方向上的研究进展进行了详细汇报，重点阐述了统计分析方法在加速寿命试验数据分析和建模中的应用、加速寿命试验设计方法、以及基于贝叶斯方法的加速寿命等效建模方法。并通过实例分析，深入浅出地展示了相关研究成果的实际应用。

    教授简介：Haitao Liao教师是阿肯色大学工业工程学院的首席教授，在故障诊断、健康管理、可靠性分析领域具有很高的声誉和影响力，是该领域的首席教授，获得美国国家自然科学基金多次资助，并获得了美国自然科学基金杰出荣誉奖。Haitao Liao教授此次来访主要就故障诊断和加速试验技术进行交流，为后续学术合作奠定基础。
