β¦ Synopsis
Fault tree analysis has been used for many years in safety and reliability analyses of nuclear reactors and other large systems. This technique can also be useful in the design of high reliability lithium cells/batteries and in improving the reliability of existing designs.
The basic building blocks of a fault tree are discussed and an example, using the Li/S02 cell, is given.

Some of the case reports describing presumed lithiumlneuroleptic interactions are considered. Lithium toxicity is proposed as a possible mechanism. The paucity of data provided on the 12-hour serum lithium levels should be noted. Most case reports do not specify the time interval between the last li
The lithium/iodine -polyvinylpyridine battery, used as a power source in cardiac pacemakers, is discussed. Because of the critical nature of the use of this cell, rather stringent reliability and quality assurance procedures are carried out during design, manufacturing, and testing of these cells. T
## Abstract This paper presents a unified approach for obtaining system reliability and availability parameters from block diagram representations of process systems. It starts with computer algorithms for obtaining the minimal paths in a system, then shows how this information can be combined with
