SUMMARY:TRACEBACK 2026
LOCATION:KPR Institute of Engineering and Technology\, Coimbatore
DESCRIPTION:<p>ABOUT THE EVENT :<br />\n<br />\nTRACEBACK is a unique Engin
 eering Failure Case Study Presentation Competition organized by the IEEE R
 eliability Society.<br />\n<br />\nUnlike conventional paper presentation 
 events where participants prepare a topic in advance\, TRACEBACK challenge
 s participants to analyze a real-world engineering failure case during the
  competition itself.<br />\n<br />\n<br />\n<br />\nRULES :<br />\n<br />\
 nEngineering analysis must be based primarily on the information provided 
 in the case study.<br />\n<br />\n• Teams should justify every major con
 clusion using technical evidence.<br />\n<br />\n• External assumptions 
 should be clearly stated if used.<br />\n<br />\n• The jury's decision w
 ill be final.<br />\n<br />\n<br />\n<br />\nEVENT FLOW :<br />\n<br />\nP
 HASE 1 – Engineering Failure Case Distribution. Each team will receive o
 ne engineering failure case study.<br />\n<br />\nPHASE 2– Engineering A
 nalysis : Teams will be given 60–90 minutes to study the case\, identify
  failure mechanisms\, analyze contributing factors\, perform root cause an
 alysis\, and prepare a technical presentation.<br />\n<br />\nPHASE 3 – 
 Technical Presentation : Teams will present their engineering findings bef
 ore the jury\, justify their conclusions using the available evidence\, an
 d recommend preventive engineering solutions.<br />\n<br />\n<br />\n<br /
 >\nEVALUATION CRITERIA :<br />\n<br />\n• Engineering Failure Analysis<b
 r />\n<br />\n• Root Cause Identification<br />\n<br />\n• Identificat
 ion of Contributing Factors<br />\n<br />\n• Evidence-Based Technical Re
 asoning<br />\n<br />\n• Engineering Logic and Analysis<br />\n<br />\n
 • Preventive Measures and Reliability Improvements<br />\n<br />\n• Te
 chnical Presentation Skills<br />\n<br />\nThere is no pre-defined answers
 . Everything will be judged on the spot.<br />\n<br />\n<br />\n<br />\nNO
 TE :<br />\n<br />\nAll the participants will recieve an E- certificate fo
 r participation.<br />\nWinners will receive physical certificates and cas
 h prize on spot.<br />\nRefreshments will be provided to everyone.<br />\n
 For Internal Participants (per person) - Rs. 200<br />\nFor External Parti
 cipants (per person) - Rs. 250</p>
