Reliability allocation methods play a pivotal role in engineering, serving as the means by which system-level reliability requirements are systematically distributed among individual subsystems and ...

Technology loves order. Software structures - and indeed hardware systems and miroprocessor chipset architectures - work best when they are shaped to a defined order, when they align to a codified ...

Reliability has been an important factor in the semiconductor industry for decades. A closer look reveals three main priorities: In the area of technology development and optimization, the microscopic ...

In the last two decades, results obtained from structural reliability analysis (SRA) have increasingly led to formation of strategies for future safe operation of corroding oil and gas pipelines. 1-8 ...
