  Reliability Bounds for Serial Systems
 
 
Title: Reliability Bounds for Serial Systems
Author: Mjelde, K. M.
Appeared in: Mechanics based design of structures & machines
Paging: Volume 12 (1984) nr. 1 pages 79-85
Year: 1984
Contents: Previously derived upper and lower bounds on the probability of failure of a system of correlated elements in series have been formulated in terms of failure probabilities of individual elements and second-order probabilities of the joint failures of two elements. In this paper, improved bounds are derived by an extension of arguments used to derive second-order bounds and by introduction of third-order simultaneous failure probabilities. A numerical example of the improvement is given. A second-order improvement of the previously given second-order upper bound is obtained as a corollary
