His major scientific/technical expertise has been in the development of new directions for the successful prediction of product performance, including reliability during service life (or other specified time), and accelerated reliability and durability testing with accurate physical simulation of field conditions. Dr. Klyatis developed new ideas and unique approaches to accurate simulation. This approach was founded on the integration of field inputs, safety, and human factors, improvement in the engineering culture, and accelerated product development. He developed a methodology for reducing complaints and recalls. His approach has been verified in various industries, primarily automotive, farm machinery, airspace, and aircraft. He has served as a consultant to Ford, DaimlerChrysler, Nissan, Toyota, Jatco Ltd, Thermo King, Black and Decker, NASA Research Centers, Carl Schenk (Germany), and many others.
