FTA-Based Reliability Measurement of Test-Bed System

The significance of reliability researches are described first. It is necessary to know concepts of reliability without a doubt, and most common measures of reliability are discussed, including reliability function and failure rate. It emphasizes two important analysis approaches: Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) and Fault-Tree Analysis (FTA). Last, it provides the quantified result of reliability analysis of a test-bed system with FTA-based RiskA software as a case study, which shows the usefulness of FTA-based reliability measurement.
