Abstract:
Reliability analysis of series structural systems with emphasis on problems typical for metal fatigue is addressed. Specific goals include the following: (1) Given the distribution of strength of the components and the distribution of external loads on the system what is the probability of failure of the system? (2) Given the target safety index for the system, what would be the target safety index for the components? Exact solutions in the analysis of series structural systems only exists for some special problems. Some of these special problems are investigated. In particular some special c

Abstract:
Maintenance models are critical for evaluation of the alternative maintenance policies for modern engineering systems. A poorly selected policy can result in excessive life-cycle costs as well as unnecessary risks for catastrophic failures of the system. Economic dependence refers to the difference between the cost of combining the maintenance of a number of components and the cost of performing the same maintenance actions individually. Maintenance that takes advantage of this difference is often called opportunistic. Large number of components and economic inter-dependence are two pervasive

Abstract:
The reliability and income analyses of newly developed $k-out-of-(n + m):G$ (or $n, m, k$) type redundant systems subject to a combination of common-cause failures and independent failures are presented. The global goal was to evaluate the impacts of the standby activation policy and the system repair times on such relevant system performance indices as the reliability, long-run availability, mean time to failure, variance of time to failure and net income. To facilitate this investigation several possible repair policies are developed. Results obtained using typical and practical values of ba

Abstract:
<p> Traditional parametric Common Cause Failure (CCF) models quantify the soft dependencies between component failures through the use of empirical ratio relationships. Furthermore CCF modeling has been essentially restricted to identical components in redundant formations. While this has been advantageous in allowing the prediction of system reliability with little or no data, it has been prohibitive in other applications such as modeling the characteristics of a system design or including the characteristics of failure when assessing the risk significance of a failure or degraded performance

Abstract:
This research has developed several models and methodologies with the aim of improving the accuracy and applicability of reliability predictions for complex repairable systems. A repairable system is usually defined as one that will be repaired to recover its functions after each failure. Physical assets such as machines, buildings, vehicles are often repairable. Optimal maintenance strategies require the prediction of the reliability of complex repairable systems accurately. Numerous models and methods have been developed for predicting system reliability.

Abstract:
<p>This praxis develops a simulation-based approach to analyzing the overall reliability of complex systems with high degrees of redundancy, time varying event rates, and the potential for common cause failures. This approach is compared to traditional analytic approaches, and is shown to have some advantages, primarily by avoiding some of the simplifying assumptions used in those approaches. </p><p> Several canonical problems are solved using both traditional and simulation-based approaches to elucidate the method, and the method is then applied to more complex problems for which exact anal
