Synopsis

Goal Oriented Methodology and Applications in Nuclear Power Plants: A Modern Systems Reliability Approach presents the latest data and research on the modern system reliability approach by GO methodology to improve the quality and reliability of nuclear power plants (NPP). Quality and reliability are two key factors which are critical to the economic success of NPPs, hence this book provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the latest data and research illustrated through the provision of examples and solutions, applications and problems to test comprehension. Authors Xiao-Jian, Jian and Hui-Na systematically illustrate reliability modeling, analysis, optimization allocation and assessment, and their applications in NPPs.

This book, without assuming prior knowledge, presents all required information in an accessible and easily applied style. It will be particularly valuable to engineering and reliability professionals, nuclear engineering graduate students, reliability engineering specialists and nuclear energy researchers.

From the Back Cover

Reliability Approach presents the latest data and research on the modern system reliability approach by GO methodology to improve the quality and reliability of nuclear power plants (NPPs) throughout the world. Quality and reliability are two key factors which are critical to the economic success of NPPs, and this book provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the latest data and research which is illustrated through the provision of examples and solutions, applications and problems to test the reader’s comprehension. Xiao-Jian, Jian and Hui-Na combine their expertise and experience to systematically illustrate related reliability approaches, such as reliability modelling, analysis, optimization allocation and assessment, and their applications in NPPs.

The popularization of the GO methodology and the increasing engineering needs of NPPs creates a need for skilled reliability engineering professionals working within the power industry. This book, without assuming prior knowledge, presents all required information in an accessible and easily applied style. This book will be particularly valuable to engineering and reliability professionals, nuclear engineering graduate students, reliability engineering specialists and nuclear energy researchers.
