Unit 4 Q

The document discusses the concept of reliability, defining it in terms of probability of success, durability, dependability, and quality over time. It includes basic reliability terms such as Mean Time Between Failures and Mean Time To Repair, along with examples and problems related to calculating overall system reliability for components connected in series and parallel. The content is part of an e-learning course from NIT Kurukshetra.

Reliability

Unit IV

Reliability

NIT Kurukshetra
Important components of definition

Probability: the likelihood of mission success

Intended function: for example, to light, cut, rotate, or heat

Satisfactory: perform according to a specification, with an


acceptable degree of compliance

Specific period of time: minutes, days, months, or number of


cycles

Specified conditions: for example, temperature, speed, or


pressure

NIT Kurukshetra
Stated another way, reliability can be
seen as:

• Probability of success
• Durability
• Dependability
• Quality over time
• Availability to perform a function

A machine consists of three components P, Q
and R connected serially. The reliabilities of
P, Q and R are 0.97, 0.86 and 0.93,
respectively. To increase the reliability of the
machine, two additional stand-by units of Q
are attached. Find the overall reliability of
the machine.
