The second edition includes three completely new chapters: two cover "Repairable System Reliability" (both for renewal and non-renewal models), with an emphasis on simple graphical techniques, while also describing analytical methods for reparable system data analysis. A third new chapter surveys areas such as reliability growth modeling, Bayesian reliability analysis, and field reliability monitoring programs.
In addition, this latest edition offers hundreds of new examples, exercises, problems, and references-all designed to provide readers with additional support in understanding and applying the latest reliability testing methods.
In bringing state-of-the-art techniques down to an accessible, how-to level, the second edition of Applied Reliability will serve the practical needs of electronic, mechanical, and industrial engineers involved in the design and manufacture of components and systems, and of statisticians and scientists working on applied reliability problems. It will also be a highly suitable textbook for engineering courses in applied reliability and quality control.

Review
"I have used the second edition of this book for an Introduction to Reliability course for over 15 years. ... The third edition ... retains the features I liked about the second edition. In addition, it includes improved graphics ... [and] examples of popular software used in industry ... There is a new chapter on Bayesian reliability and additional material on reliability data plotting, and repairable systems’ analysis. ... The book does a good and comprehensive job of explaining the basic reliability concepts; types of data encountered in practice and how to treat this data; reliability data plotting; and the common probability distributions used in reliability work, including motivations for their use and practical areas of application. ... an excellent choice for a first course in reliability. The book also does a good job of explaining more advanced topics ... the book will continue to be a popular desk reference in industry and a textbook for advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate students."
