Reliability Analysis of APCS

Resumo

This article is devoted to the problems of reliability analysis of APCS. The advantages and disadvantages of different methods of qualitative reliability analysis of technical systems are examined, and the need for combined use of all methods studied is shown and validated. The most appropriate criterion of evaluation is found on the basis of an analysis of the primary reliability indices of the APCS means. This research shows that there is a need for developing a method of reliability and safety analysis that will make it possible to evaluate the risk of systems which are under development, raise the reliability indices to the level of economic calculations, and choose the APCS means taking account of economic factors, which would lower the cost of development work and delivery.
