  1. Reliability of New High Tech Roller Coasters By: Topher Schott DSES-6070 HV5 Statistical Methods for Reliability Engineering Spring 2008 Professor Ernesto Gutierrez-Miravete

  2. What could go wrong in a roller coaster? Urethane Wheels Sensors Magnets Launch Track Lift Hill Brake Runs Train Inversion Track

  3. What could go wrong in a roller coaster? Launch Track

  4. Hydraulic Linear Induction Motor Reliability of Launch Tracks “[Many new coasters] rarely open during its first season” “Many of these rides ran reliably once the kinks were worked out…” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL2jnfUXWVg

  5. Event Tree Fault Tree Monte Carlo Simulation FMECA Methodologies for Project Assumptions: Wind/Weight/Precipitation Distribution Momentum>435000 ft lb per second Momentum negatively proportional to Wind/Precip Goal; Least “Maximum Speed” required?

  6. Results The greater the maximum speed capabilities, the better availability of the coaster!

  7. How do you make these go faster? What is a failure to the end customer? Complete FMECA used to prevent catastrophe Conclusion
