Introduction
- A Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) is a method of modelling how components and sub-system failures combine to cause system failure.
- Reliability block diagrams may be analyzed to predict the reliability and availability of a system.
- Able to determine the critical components from a reliability viewpoint.
Key Features
- Reliability Workbench RBD is also provided with Markov analysis and Weibull analysis modules.
- Capable of analyzing large and complex RBD.
- Able to produce the minimal cut- sets for both the sub system and system.
- Able to calculate a range of importance measures.
- Provides unlimited hierarchical levels for the project.
- Includes a Common Cause Failure (CCF) facility.
- Produces high quality RBD reports.
- Import and export facilities allow data to be transferred to and from the data bases, spreadsheets and files.
Benefits
- Provides the parameters like Reliability, Availability and Expected failures.
- Markov analysis capabilities are provided for analyzing components with strong dependencies.
- Weibull analysis is included to predict the age of the component using the historical data sets.
- Able to identify the weak areas in the system
- Abe to recommend for the design changes according to the reliability aspects.
- The multiple import and export facilities are provided.
- The report designer is very useful to maintain all the reports in a folder.
