Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Using an interdisciplinary perspective, this outstanding book provides an introduction to the theory and practice of reliability engineering. This revised edition contains a number of improvements: new material on quality-related methodologies, inclusion of spreadsheet solutions for certain examples, a more detailed treatment which ties the load-capacity approach to reliability to failure rate methodology, and a new section dealing with safety hazards of products and equipment.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction -- Probability and sampling -- Continuous random variables -- Quality and its measures -- Data and distributions -- Reliability and rates of failure -- Loads, capacity and reliability -- Reliability testing -- Redundancy -- Maintained systems -- Failure interactions -- System safety analysis.
