Preface
Recently, developments in reliability engineering have become the most challenging and demanding area of research. System reliability engineering has become a greater apprehension in modern years because of high-tech industrial processes with most engineering systems today having ever-increasing levels of complexity. Reliability theory forms the common foundation of engineering as it evolves and develops. The book “Modeling and Simulation Based Analysis in Reliability Engineering” engrossed on a comprehensive range of modeling and simulation in reliability engineering. Topics of focus include:
Modeling the assessment and monitoring of reliability of the condensation thermal power plants
Non-exponential distributions in reliability modeling of PMS: approximation and simulation approaches
Optimal periodic software rejuvenation policies in discrete time
Potential applications of multivariate analysis for modeling reliability of repairable systems
Phased mission systems
Bayesian inference on general-order statistic models
Large scale reliability-redundancy allocation optimization problem
The new distribution-free reliability monitoring scheme: advances and applications in engineering
Modeling and simulation of a sustainable hybrid energy system under changing power reliability index
Signature reliability of k-out-of-n sliding window system
Modeling reliability of component-based software systems
Reliability and fault tolerance modeling of multiphase traction electric motors
The book is meant for those who want to take reliability engineering as a subject of study. This book is very useful to the undergraduate and postgraduate students of engineering; and engineers, research scientists, and academicians involved in the engineering sciences.
