On the Definition of Functional Reliability
نویسنده
چکیده
The theory of reliability has been developed in order to ensure operability of technical objects (components and systems). However, no thorough explanation of the term “functional reliability” is given by now, although it is used with increasing frequency. We deduce a definition based on the terms property, quality and function.. In this connection, we draw attention on the principal differences between functional and structural reliability. We explain similarities between functional safety and functional reliability and show how they smoothly change one into the other.

متن کاملEstimating Reliability in Mobile ad-hoc Networks Based on Monte Carlo Simulation (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Each system has its own definition of reliability. Reliability in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) could be interpreted as, the probability of reaching a message from a source node to destination, successfully. The variability and volatility of the MANET configuration makes typical reliability methods (e.g. reliability block diagram) inappropriate. It is because, no single structure or configurat...

متن کاملA Bayesian Networks Approach to Reliability Analysis of a Launch Vehicle Liquid Propellant Engine
This paper presents an extension of Bayesian networks (BN) applied to reliability analysis of an open gas generator cycle Liquid propellant engine (OGLE) of launch vehicles. There are several methods for system reliability analysis such as RBD, FTA, FMEA, Markov Chains, and etc. But for complex systems such as LV, they are not all efficiently applicable due to failure dependencies between compo...
