Handbook of reliability engineering (Wiley, 1994)
Based on the 1985 Russian edition of: Spravochnik nadezhnostʹ tekhnicheskikh sistem. Completely rewritten since 1975. - "A Wiley-Interscience publication."
Includes bibliographical references (p. 648-658) and index
Originally published in the USSR, Handbook of Reliability Engineering set the standard for the reliability testing of technical systems for nearly three generations of applied scientists and engineers. Authored by a group of prominent Soviet specialists in reliability, it provided professionals and students with the first comprehensive reference covering mathematical formulas and techniques for incorporating reliability into engineering designs and testing procedures for nearly three decades
Now, the Handbook's Russian editor, an internationally recognized reliability expert in his own right, has joined forces with a prominent American engineering professional to bring this indispensable resource to English-speaking audiences
Divided into three major parts, the Handbook details reliability fundamentals, examines common reliability problems and solutions, provides a collection of computation formulas and illustrates practical applications of the methods discussed in twenty-four self-contained chapters
