Abstract

The classical approach to the determination of reliability characteristics is based on empirical data which represent operating time to the failure of several systems or components. Thus reliability assessment is a process which takes place after the failures have occurred. The main aim of this paper is to present a new approach which enables reliability to be assessed at real—time and reliability characteristics to be determined before failure takes place. The method used is based on the Relevant Condition Parameter reliability approach.
