Computational approaches have brought powerful new techniques to calculate reliability supported by experimental and theoretical methods. These approaches play a crucial role in Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology as well. The Reliability modeling codes to calculate reliability function, failure rate function, Mean time to failure (MTTF) and Mean Residual time (MRT) are proposed for MEMS technology. It is observed that High Performance Computing (HPC) can be used to optimize reliability calculation and help to accelerate research in reliability of MEMS.
In the proposed work, Modeling and Computation is performed using MATLAB distributed computing toolbox and Sugar MEMS simulation library. This has been done by making a library for MEMS reliability "RSRlib". It is an extension to SUGAR package for MEMS. It allows the user to perform simulation of a MEMS device in different environments as well as used to compute some aspects of system reliability such as Survival function and failure rate.
