Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reliability modeling and evaluation involve using a reliability block diagram and mathematical model to describe the functional logic relationship of each unit of the system and then evaluating the reliability of the product. Reliability modeling is a basic concept and the premise of all reliability activities. In the project design stage of products, it aims to allocate and predict the reliability; in the manufacturing stage, it is used for fault analysis (reliability analysis); after the product is manufactured, the inherent reliability of the product is evaluated through the reliability model. In recent years, computer technology has provided new methods able to cope with the complexity of reliability parameters, system complexity and task complexity, providing numerous analysis methods and processing methods, and advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have provided new solutions for reliability data analysis. The main objective of this Special Issue is to present the opportunities, challenges, emerging solutions and latest applications of reliability modeling and evaluation.
