Reliability, Maintainability and Risk by David J Smith

Reliability, Maintainability and Risk deals with all aspects of reliability, maintainability and safety-related failures in a simple and straightforward style, explaining technical terms and jargon and pre-supposing no prior knowledge of the subject. The author explains dealing with numerical data, making realistic predictions using the minimum of mathematics, and handling the limitations of reliability parameters. A well-established book has been considerably expanded in this fully revised fifth edition to take account of: * RCM and the optimisation of maintenance strategies. * Trends in the integrity of safety-related systems. * Risk assessment. * Updated information on software tools for reliability and risk assessment.
