Reliability Modelling for Non-Electronic Systems

摘要

An approach for reliability modeling of nonelectronic systems is presented. Theneed for a specific methodology to be applied in the nonelectronic area is justified because nonelectronic items are generally single point failure of the system, and the classical approach used in electronics cannot be realistically applied to nonelectronic items, due to their particularities. Specific models, depending on both design margins and provisions for realization aspects, are proposed. Examples of such models and rules of combination of the models at system level are given. The results of research conducted on typical probabilities in the space area for human errors and inspection efficiencies are presented.
