Helpful?           0
The ability of an item to perform a required function under stated conditions for a stated period of time without failures. The numerical value of reliability is expressed as a probability from 0 to 1 and is also sometimes known as the probability of mission success. Reliability is the probability, assuming the system was operating at time zero that it continues to operate until time t.

Reliability is (MTBF-MTTR)/MTBF = 1-MTTR/MTBF. Since typical values for reliability are on the order of .9, .99, or .999, it is common to simply count 9s. So, example, a system with 1 hour of downtime (MTTR = 1 hour) in a thousand hours of operation (MTBF=1000 hours) would be .999 or 3 nines. There are about 9000 hours in a year, so a system running 24x7 with 3 nines reliability should fail about 9 times a year.

(1) a user-oriented quality requirement specifying the the maximum frequency of system failure, typically measured as the: Mean time between failures (MTF), whereby MTF is defined as the average period of time that an application or component shall continue to function correctly without failure under stated conditions). The number of failures per unit time. (2) a quantitative quality factor measuring the actual frequency of system failure. Contrast with operational availability and robustness.

Probability that a device will accomplish a required function under given conditions over a given period of time. RMS value of AC current with harmonics. The RMS value Yrms of a non-sinusoidal alternating current may be determined on the basis of the individual harmonic currents where Y is the RMS value of the fundamental.

Helpful?           0
The duration or probability of failure-free performance under stated conditions. In OT&E, reliability is usually reported in one of two ways: a. Mission Reliability (R). For equipment operated only during a relatively short-duration mission (as opposed to equipment operated more or less continuously), the probability of completing the mission without an operational mission failure. b. MTBOMF. Mean time between operational mission failures. For more or less continuously operated equipment or systems. MTBOMF measures reliability as it relates to the overall mission of the equipment or system being tested and is the total operating time divided by the number of operational mission failures. MTBOMF is the figure used in the calculation of overall mission reliability (R). MTBOMF is sometimes modified to mean flight hours between operational mission failures (MFHBOMF).
