Contents:
1. Systems engineering and the sustainability disciplines -- 2. Reliability requirements -- 3. Reliability modeling for systems engineers -- 4. Reliability modeling for systems engineers -- 5. Comparing predicted and realized reliability with requirements -- 6. Design for reliability -- 7. Reliability engineering for high-consequence systems -- 8. Reliability engineering for services -- 9. Reliability engineering for the software component of systems and services -- 10. Maintainability requirements -- 11. Design for maintainability -- 12. Support requirements -- 13. Design for supportability -- Index.
Summary: This book helps systems engineers lead the development of systems and services whose reliability, maintainability, and supportability meet and exceed the expectations of their customers and promote success and profit for their suppliers. This book is organized into three major parts: reliability, maintainability, and supportability engineering. Within each part, there is material on requirements development, quantitative modelling, statistical analysis, and best practices in each of these areas. Heavy emphasis is placed on correct use of language. The author discusses the use of various sustainability engineering methods and techniques in crafting requirements that are focused on the customers needs, unambiguous, easily understood by the requirements stakeholders, and verifiable. Part of each major division of the book is devoted to statistical analyses needed to determine when requirements are being met by systems operating in customer environments.
