As
engineering systems become more and more complex, industry has
recognized the importance of system and product reliability and
places ever increasing emphasis on it during the design phase.
Despite its efforts, however, industry continues to lose billions
of dollars each year because of unexpected system failures. Therefore,
it becomes increasingly important for designers and engineers
to have a solid grounding in reliability engineering and keep
abreast of new developments and research results. |
