Highly Accelerated Testing in the
Aerospace Environment
In this presentation, we plan to
describe the experience of Thales-Avionics with issues of
operational reliability improvement through highly-accelerated
testing methods.Thales-Avionics has undertaken implementation of
Highly Accelerated Tests (known as HAT or HALT/HASS). After a
"Pilot" period, Thales Aerospace decided to deploy HAT and Highly
Accelerated Environmental Stress Screening (HA-ESS) throughout
Thales. Today HAT and HA-ESS are an integral component of Thales'
reliability programs with 24 HAT / HASS systems distributed on ten
industrial sites throughout France and the United States.
Key Words: HAT, HALT, HASS,
HA-ESS, Aerospace
