reliability block diagram

A reliability block diagram is used to construct a model for large items.

This data is applied to the reliability block diagram to evaluate individual availability reduction contributions using the following formulas.

Although some customers used to reliability block diagrams (RBD), prefer this interface for transparency, showing component redundancy instead of product flow.

A reliability block diagram (RBD) is a diagrammatic method for showing how component reliability contributes to the success or failure of a complex system.

Alternatives to FTA include dependence diagram (DD), also known as reliability block diagram (RBD) and Markov analysis.

Fault trees are a logical inverse of success trees, and may be obtained by applying de Morgan's theorem to success trees (which are directly related to reliability block diagrams).

Two types of analysis that are often used to model a complete system availability (including effects from logistics issues like spare part provisioning, transport and manpower) behavior are Fault Tree Analysis and Reliability Block diagrams.
