Reliability Assessment of Repairable System through Expert Elicitation
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2014 The effect of unplanned downtime cannot be more over emphasized which can range from minor disturbance to catastrophic to plant operation. As much as possible the occurrence of failure has to be reduced or eliminated by putting more focus on planned ...

Известия высших учебных заведений и энергетических объединенний СНГ: Энергетика, 2004 The paper contains an analysis of the equipment state at a number of thermal power stations. This analysis is made on the basis of indifferent curves. Relationship of two factors is taken as a criterion for estimation of the equipment state.

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Reliability Analysis of Repairable Systems Considering Failure Detection Equipments [PDF]
Korean Journal of Applied Statistics, 2011 In this paper we consider failure detection equipment that which find failures in repairable systems and enable repair operations. In practical situations, failure detection equipment may come across troubles that can cause the omissions in detecting system failures and have a serious effect on system reliability.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.
