Safety Standards 3 days (21h)

ISO 26262 (Automotive)

A detailed view of the functional-safety activities and requirements of ISO 26262:2018 for automotive E/E systems.

Course Description

This ISO 26262 training gives automotive engineers a working understanding of functional safety for road-vehicle electrical and electronic systems and how to apply the standard across the V-model.

Pedagogical Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the applicable organizational provisions (project management, competence management, safety culture).
  • Manage the functional-safety engineering activities of embedded systems, including supplier activities.
  • Monitor compliance status against functional-safety requirements for systems and their hardware and software elements across the whole life cycle.
  • Address the development or integration of Safety Elements out of Context (SEooC) and tool-qualification criteria.

Course Program

  • General regulatory context: type approval, product liability, general product safety.
  • Management of functional safety of systems (Part 2): organizational and project safety management.
  • Concept phase (Part 3): Item Definition, Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA), Functional Safety Concept and Safety Goals.
  • System-level development (Part 4): technical safety requirements and concept (TSR, TSC), hardware/software interface (HSI), candidate architectures (decompositions).
  • Hardware-level development (Part 5): hardware safety requirements (HwSR) and HW life cycle; architecture metrics (SPFM, LFM) and safety-goal violation evaluation (PMHF/EEC).
  • Software-level development (Part 6): software safety requirements (SwSR) and SW life cycle; software architecture requirements; unit verification, integration and embedded-software verification.
  • Post-development phases (Part 7).
  • Safety Elements out of Context – SEooC (Part 10).
