Operation Reliability Evaluation for Two-Axle Bogie with Simulation

摘要

Numerical simulation method based on priority and event sequencing is a powerful and adaptable tool to evaluate the reliability of two-axle bogie whose subsystems and/or components, which follow to arbitrary failure and repair distributions. Hypothetical networks of 6 subsystems are analyzed as an example. It is shown that the system reliability evaluation for the bogie through numerical simulation is convenient to measure the reliability. The emphasis of this paper is also placed on the presentation of sample of simulation and program logic of simulation procedures.
