What is Reliability
± To the user of a product, reliability is problem
free operation
± Reliability is a function of stress
± To efficiently achieve reliability, rely on
analytical understanding of reliability and less
on understanding reliability through testing

Reliability in Logistics
Reliability Definitions
± Reliability is a characteristic of an item,
expressed by the probability that the item will
perform its required function under given
conditions for a stated time interval.
(Prof. Dr. Alessandro Birolini, 1999)
± The probability that an item will perform arequired function without failure under stated
conditions for a stated period of time.
(Patrick D. T. O¶Connor, 1992)

Reliability in Logistics ± The probability that an item will perform its
intended function for a specified interval under
stated conditions. (Reliability Analysis Center
and Rome Laboratory, 1993)
± The rigorous definition has four parts:
1. Reliability is the probability that a system
2. will demonstrate specified performance
3. For a stated period of time4. when operated under specified conditions.
(Daniel L. Babcock, 1996)

How is Reliability Used
± It is used to define the longevity of a product
and the associated cost it incurs
± It helps identify risk of the product for both the
consumer and producer
± It incorporates statistics to better identify how
much ³give´ or ³take´ can go into a product or service - usually, the higher the reliability, the
higher the initial cost.

K = the time at which F(t) = 0 and is adatum parameter; i.e., failures start
occurring at time t W = the characteristic life and is a scale

System Reliability Models
± The reliability definitions, concepts and
models presented apply at any level of asystem, from a single discretecomponent up
to and including the entire system

Reliability in Logistics
± Systems reliability deals with the reliability of
the end-item system and is based on the
system configuration and component failure
rates as well intended service usage
± There are two basic types of reliability
configurations
Series
Parallel or Redundant

30
Reliability in Logistics
Series Configuration
± Simplest and most common structure in
reliability analysis
± Functional operation of the system depends
on the successful operation of all system
components Note: The electrical or
mechanical configuration may differ from thereliability configuration

elements: E1, E2, ..., En Block Diagram:

element in the system interrupts the path and

Parallel Configuration
± Redundant reliability configuration-
sometimes called a redundant reliability
configuration. Other times, the termµredundant¶ is used only when the system is
deliberately changed to provide additional
paths, in order to improve the system
reliability.

± Basic assumptions
All elements are continuously energized starting at
time t = 0
All elements are µup¶ at time t = 0 The operation during time t of each element can
be described as either a success or a failure, i.e.,
degraded operation or performance is not
considered
