Tiivistelmä	Robust reliability analysis is an engineering method that combines classical reliability estimation with robustness principles to quantify and improve system dependability in the presence of parameter uncertainty and variability. Rather than assuming fixed input values, it propagates distributions of noise factors through a reliability model to produce probability-of-failure estimates that remain valid across a range of operating conditions and manufacturing tolerances.	Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a structured, proactive risk management technique used to identify potential failure modes in a system, process, or product design, evaluate their consequences, and prioritize corrective actions before failures occur. Originally developed for the U.S. military in 1949 and later adopted by NASA, automotive, and manufacturing industries, FMEA is now a cornerstone quality-engineering tool embedded in standards such as AIAG-VDA and ISO 9001-aligned processes.
