Series Systems
Example 4.1
A system consists of 10 identical components, all of which must work for system success. What is the
system reliability if each component has a reliability of 0.95?

Example 4.3
Series Systems
A system design requires 200 identical components in series. If the overall reliability must not be less
than 0.99, what is the minimum reliability of each component?

Series-Parallel Systems
Example 4.7
Derive a general expression for the reliability of the model shown in Figure 4.5 and hence evaluate the
system reliability if all components have a reliability of 0.9.

Partially Redundant Systems
Example 4.8
Derive a general expression for the unreliability of the system whose reliability model is shown in
Figure 4.9. Consider the case in which all parallel branches of this system are fully redundant with the
exception of that consisting of components 4, 5 and 6 for which any 2 of the branches are required for
system success.
