As the developments in engineering production techniques have
resulted in an increasing dependence on automation, the increasing
complexity of these systems has made the reliability of the
machines a matter of great importance. An unexpected breakdown can
be a very expensive experience for the company. Further, in the
aerospace industry, problems of reliability, maintainability and
availability are critical. For a long time industrial research and
training centres have been interested primarily in the problems of
design, manufacture and production; recently, however, there has
been a growing interest in the study of maintenance and
reliability. The concept of maintainability, for example, first
appeared in 1954 in the US army. Since then a variety of techniques
and methodologies have been developed and implemented to meet the
challenge of the new needs. The aim of this book is to present
these methods and investigate their effectiveness, and in so doing
to help practising engineers gain a better understanding of the
problems. The many examples and applications given here should make
it a valuable teaching aid to students taking courses in
engineering maintenance. This second edition has been revised and
enlarged to take account of the most recent developments and
illustrate their application to the solution of problems. It should
also help to orient the reader to the modern concept of
computer-aided maintenance. Introduction A maintenance service
exists to keep equipment in running order and also to reduce the
number of breakdowns.
