Ernst G. Frankel This book has its origin in lecture notes
developed over several years for use in a course in Systems
Reliability f r engineers concerned with the design of physical
systems such as civil structures, power plants, and transport
systems of all types. Increasing public concern with the
reliability of systems for reasons of human safety, environmental
protection, and acceptable investment risk limitations has resulted
in an increasing interest by engineers in the formal application of
reliability theory to engineering design. At the same time there is
a demand for more effective approaches to the design of procedures
for the operation and use of man made systems, more meaningful
assessment of the risks introduced, and use such a system poses
both when operating as designed and when operating at below design
performance. The purpose of the book is to provide a sound, yet
practical, introduction to reliability analysis and risk assessment
which can be used by professionals in engineering, planning,
management, and economics to improve the design, operation, and
risk assessment of systems of interest. The text should be useful
for students in many disciplines and is designed for fourth-year
undergraduates or first-year graduate students. I would like to
acknowledge the help of many of my graduate students who
contributed to the development of this book by offering comments
and criticism. Similarly, I would like to thank Mrs. Sheila McNary
who typed untold drafts of the manuscript, and Mr."
