This textbook is intended to supplement the Reliability, Maintainability, and Availability for Engineers course class presentation. Professor Virgil Rehg originally developed this material for the Air Force Institute of Technology School of Systems and Logistics course, QMT 372 Reliability.
This course is a tailored and updated sub-set of the (former) AFIT School of Systems and Logistics QMT 372 Reliability course. It is tailored to comply with NAVSEA Port Hueneme Division request for an off-the-shelf RMA for Engineers course.
The course also:
1. Provides the participant with an understanding of the principles and assumptions of reliability, maintainability, and availability (RMA). Emphasizes a study of the time-to-failure distributions used in reliability: normal, exponential and Weibull.
2. Covers reliability allocation and prediction techniques for equipment and systems; reliability growth and reliability qualification testing, including the development of O.C. (operating characteristic) curves and the use of relevant Military Handbooks for reliability testing.
3. Includes the binomial and Poisson distribution applications to reliability.
