Technical, comprehensive resource on system reliability modeling
System Reliability Modeling develops algorithms for generating a system reliability model using matrix algebra. All algorithms are presented in ready-to-use MATLAB functions ensuring system reliability modeling becomes as simple as writing a few lines of MATLAB code, no matter how complex the system structures are. All functions are managed in a user-friendly software package to simplify modeling and analyzing of the reliability of a complex system. The package is also utilized to investigate the optimum maintenance and replacement programs, component orderings, and warmness levels in standby systems.
The book includes examples and simple exercises for every topic, applications for real systems, problems at the end of each chapter, chapters on discrete time systems, and the use of AI in system reliability.
This book discusses:
- Matrix-based distributions, covering continuous-time Markov chains (CTMC), ways to model CTMC, phase-type (PH) and matrix-exponential (ME) distributions, similarity transformation, and approximating scalar distributions with PH distributions
- One-component systems, covering reliability, hazard, and mean residual lifetime functions, perfect and imperfect maintenance, optimum replacement interval, and stock-out risk
- Basic structured systems, covering series, parallel, standby with perfect and imperfect switches structures, and any combination of these structures
- General structure systems, covering a method to incorporate warmness levels into standby systems, so that one standby model applies to hot, warm, and cold standby in any combination thus applicable to all basic structured systems
- Network reliability, covering methods for converting Boolean structure functions into arithmetic functions and calculating network’s reliability measures and the maximum reliability function in capacitated networks
System Reliability Modeling is an excellent resource for students, researchers, reliability engineers, maintenance engineers, and spare part logistics engineers seeking a rigorous analytical method in system design for reliability.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
