Mechanical Products Reliability Assessment Based on the Structural Performance Degradation Data

GUI Reliability Assessment based on Bayesian Network and Structural Profile

Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) is becoming increasingly important in the software field as it builds a friendly way between users and software through continuous interactions. A well-developed GUI is therefore an important factor of software quality. In particular, the reliability of GUIs is still on the way of development. Existing software reliability assessment techniques attempt to statist...

STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT UTILIZING FOUR METAHEURISTIC ALGORITHMS

The failure probability of the structures is one of the challenging problems in structural engineering. To obtain the reliability index introduced by Hasofer and Lind, one needs to solve a nonlinear equality constrained optimization problem. In this study, four of the most recent metaheuristic algorithms are utilized for finding the design point and the failure probability of problems with cont...

Structural studies on the degradation products of vincristine dihydrogen sulfate.

Vincristine was incubated at 37 degrees C for 72 h in 0.2 M glycine buffer (pH 7.4 or 8.8) containing 1% bovine serum albumin. The reaction mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis (muBondapak C18 reverse-phase 10-micron steel column; solvent, 50% MeOH in 10 mM KH2PO4, pH 4.5; flow rate, 1.2 ml/min) of the CH2Cl2 extract gave 6 peaks, A, B, C, D, E, and...

Reliability assessment of mechanical systems

Reliability: on the reproducibility of assessment data.

CONTEXT All assessment data, like other scientific experimental data, must be reproducible in order to be meaningfully interpreted. PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to discuss applications of reliability to the most common assessment methods in medical education. Typical methods of estimating reliability are discussed intuitively and non-mathematically. SUMMARY Reliability refers to the...
