analysis

No need to differentiate. They are both "analysis."
解析 TENDS to be used in mathematics.
分析 TENDS to be used in other science and engineering fields.
I have stressed TENDS because the boundary is really fuzzy.

Analysis of faulty products by processes of elimination and malfunction reproducibility.

Trying to differentiate 分析 and 解析, coming up with the following conclusions:
- 分析 : tracking down fault by process of elimination
- 解析 : working out the step by step effect(s) of identified cause of malfunction (It may help to keep in mind that 解析 is also used to refer to 'reverse engineering')
But a quicker and ready rendering would be to just lump both terms together under the term of : troubleshooting
Example sentence:

Determining which cause is most likely is often a process of elimination ... using failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and fault tree analysis (FTA) before full .... and emphasis in troubleshooting is placed on reproducibility ..
