5 What is and Why study System Reliability? What is System Reliability? Definition: Reliability is the probability that an item, component or system execute its function during a specified mission time and under designated operating conditions, given that it was operating or able to operate at the initial time. Pr 1, 2... R t T t c c T: time of failure (random variable) t: mission time c 1, c 2,... Designed operating conditions 10 5

8 Failure rate / Hazard rate () Definition: It is the rate of occurrence of failure in a given time dr t 1 f t t dt R t R t R t dr t t dt R t 0 e t d 15 Exponential distribution f(t) = 2.0/hr = 1.0/hr = 0.5/hr f(t) = e R(t) = e t t 1 MTTF = t 16 8

9 Exponencial distribution 1.2 f(t) = e t 1 R(t) = e t R(t) = 0.5/hr = 1.0/hr MTTF = = 2.0/hr t 17 Exponencial distribution = 2.0/hr 0.8 F(t) = 1.0/hr 0.2 = 0.5/hr t 18 9

10 Weibull distribution The most useful distribution in reliability studies Can be used to model DFR and IFR (region I and III); The failure rate is defined by: (t) a t Or, for mathematical convenience, by: t (t) scale factor []=time shape factor b 1 19 Weibull distribution Therefore: n 1 = n! for n integer d t 0 R t e e f t = 3.75 represents a normal distribution t 1 t dr t t e dt + 1 MTTF = 20 10

11 Life testing Objective: Obtain data to allow the estimation of the reliability Possible configurations: Not censored: The test ends only when all units fail. Censored: The test can end after a specified number of failures or time duration Can be accelerated 21 BAYESIAN METHODS FOR ESTIMATING PARAMETERS Visão geral: Model for Data Data Prior f () Π θ E Likelihood L( Data ) Bayesian Inference PE L E θ f θ MLE Posterior (Data) 22 11

12 APPLICATION TO RELIABILITY ESTIMATION Example: Consider the prior distribution for reliability R of a new device as: 3 f R = 4R 0 < R < 1 so; ER = R 4R dr = R = Método de Bayes para estimativa de parâmetros Example (cont.): If we have a evidence of a success (s) during a mission time: and, f R Pr s R 3 4 4R R 4R gr s = = = = 5R f R Prs R dr 4R dr R E R s = R g R s dr = R 5R dr = =

14 Evaluating System Reliability Methods: Reliability Block Diagrams Standby, Share load systems and complex configuration Consider also the functional configuration not only the physical configuration Logic-Based Diagrams Fault tree, Success tree e Event tree Event tree considers that the components act in a certain chronological order to fulfill its mission All methods treat the components of the systems as being statistically independent 27 Block Diagram Series components: The system will be available only when all its components are ready to operate The system is at fault condition when some of its components are defective. Hence: A B C Z R s Rs t t Pr A Pr A B Pr B C Pr C Z Pr Z R t R t R t R t R t s A B C Z n RS t Ri t i1 Considering all components as independent 28 14

15 Block Diagram Parallel components : S The system is available when at least one of its components are ready to operate The system is at fault condition when all components are in failed state F Pr A B Z n i F F t F t F t S A B Z 1R t F t S i1 n i1 RS t 1 1Ri t 29 Block Diagram k-out-of-n system If any of the k blocks out of N independent and identical blocks should work so that the system works, then: N N r Nr RS t R t 1 R t r k r k1 N 1 R t 1 R t r 0 r r Nr 30 15

17 Logic Tree Analysis It is a top down deductive decomposition of a failure into its basic causes using Boolean Logic Gates (Logic Representation) in Logic Trees Gate OR C AB C AB Gate NOT OR C A B C A B Gate AND C AB C AB Gate NOT AND C A B C A B 33 Fault Tree Analysis Example: Qualitative Analysis: Cut sets e path sets Quantitative Analysis: It must be done carefully Fonte: Modarres (2009) 34 17

18 Event Tree Analysis If successful operation of a system depends on the chronological operation of some of its units or subsystems, then an event tree is a useful logical model for the system. ac Source P Sink A fault tree can be used to determine the probability of each branch of the event tree 35 Bayesian Network BN is a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) which is defined as G = (V,E), where V are the nodes, that can represent discrete or continuous variables, and E is a set of ordered pairs of distinct elements of V and it is called arcs (or edges), that represent the dependencies between the nodes. The conditional probabilities associated with the variables are the quantitative component

26 Hazards, Accident and Risk Hazard: Potential of an event, if it occurs, to cause a negative consequences to people, to property and/or to the environment ACCIDENT An unforeseen and unwelcome event that causes a negative consequence to people, to property and/or to the environment. RISK: Concept attributed to the uncertainty used for assessing the potential effect of an accident in terms of its likelihood of occurrence and the magnitude of their consequences. 51 Risk Analysis x Risk Assessment 52 26

27 Risk Analysis Qualitative x Quantitative Qualitative analysis: qualitatively evaluates the risk related to all possible hazardous events in the installation, considering the likelihood of such events occur, and the effects from these events In general, it is previously performed a quantitative risk analysis Quantitative analysis: quantitatively analyzes the risks identified during the qualitative analysis with high probability of occurring and / or causing major damage to the structure, to people or the environment numerically quantifies the probability of occurrence of the event and its consequence. 53 Qualitative Risk Analysis 54 27

28 Quantitative Risk Analysis The total risk is commonly defined mathematically by: R i P C i i P i : probability of occurrence of event i C i : expected severity of the event i i : possible hazardous events Some authors propose the inclusion of the probability of detection means provided in the system for calculating risk 55 Formal Safety Assessment 56 28
