A comprehensive, current reference on building high levels of reliability into components and products. The coverage ranges from the basic calculations for reliability estimation, to constructing and using the likelihood function in estimating the parameters of a failure time distribution, to ensuring reliability objectives through preventive maintenance. The volume emphasizes the role of reliability in the design phase of production, and covers parametric and nonparametric reliability models as well as accelerated life testing. The included software enables engineers to apply these models. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
