Presents the theory and methodology for reliability assessments of
safety-critical functions through examples from a wide range of
applications Reliability of Safety-Critical Systems: Theory and
Applications provides a comprehensive introduction to reliability
assessments of safety-related systems based on electrical,
electronic, and programmable electronic (E/E/PE) technology. With a
focus on the design and development phases of safety-critical
systems, the book presents theory and methods required to document
compliance with IEC 61508 and the associated sector-specific
standards. Combining theory and practical applications, Reliability
of Safety-Critical Systems: Theory and Applications implements key
safety-related strategies and methods to meet quantitative safety
integrity requirements. In addition, the book details a variety of
reliability analysis methods that are needed during all stages of a
safety-critical system, beginning with specification and design and
advancing to operations, maintenance, and modification control. The
key categories of safety life-cycle phases are featured, including
strategies for the allocation of reliability performance
requirements; assessment methods in relation to design; and
reliability quantification in relation to operation and
maintenance. Issues and benefits that arise from complex modern
technology developments are featured, as well as: * Real-world
examples from large industry facilities with major accident
potential and products owned by the general public such as cars and
tools * Plentiful worked examples throughout that provide readers
with a deeper understanding of the core concepts and aid in the
analysis and solution of common issues when assessing all facets of
safety-critical systems * Approaches that work on a wide scope of
applications and can be applied to the analysis of any
safety-critical system * A brief appendix of probability theory for
reference With an emphasis on how safety-critical functions are
introduced into systems and facilities to prevent or mitigate the
impact of an accident, this book is an excellent guide for
professionals, consultants, and operators of safety-critical
systems who carry out practical, risk, and reliability assessments
of safety-critical systems. Reliability of Safety-Critical Systems:
Theory and Applications is also a useful textbook for courses in
reliability assessment of safety-critical systems and reliability
engineering at the graduate-level, as well as for consulting
companies offering short courses in reliability assessment of
safety-critical systems.
