SynopsisAppropriate for courses in Reliability, Reliability Engineering, and Reliability Engineering and Analysis. Approaching reliability from the standpoint of applications rather than advanced probability theory and higher mathematics, this text separates the hows from the whys at a level that is relevant to those with only limited technical training as well as those seeking a more analytical framework. Its three-fold presentation (1) describes how reliability is defined and specified; (2) addresses methods of designing reliability; and (3) covers techniques for proving and improving the reliability of a system. This book is appropriate for engineering and engineering tech programs and features methods for solving reliability of complex systems without complex math., Approaching reliability from the standpoint of substance rather than advanced probability theory and higher mathematics, this book separates the "hows" from the "whys" at a level that is relevant to those with only limited technical training as well as those seeking a more analytical framework.
