Reliability analysis and resilience measure of complex systems in shock events

The working environment of complex systems is complex and variable, and their performance is often affected by various shock events during the service phase. In this paper, first, considering that the system performance will be affected by shocks again in the process of maintenance, the reliability changes and fault process of complex systems are discussed. Second, the performance change processes of complex systems are analyzed under multiple shocks and maintenance. Then, based on performance loss and recovery, this paper analyzes the reliability and resilience of complex systems under the intersecting process of multiple shocks and maintenance. Considering the direct and indirect losses caused by shocks, as well as maintenance costs, the changes in total costs are analyzed. Finally, the practicability of the proposed model is checked by using a specific welding robot system

Component Maintenance Strategies and Risk Analysis for Random Shock Effects Considering Maintenance Costs

Maintenance can improve a system’s reliability in a long operation period or when a component has failed. The reliability modeling method that uses the stochastic process degradation model to describe the system degradation process has been widely used. However, the existing reliability models established using stochastic processes only consider the internal degradation process, and do not fully consider the impact of external random shocks on their reliability modeling. Furthermore, the existing theory of importance does not consider the actual factors of maintenance cost. In this paper, based on the reliability modeling of random processes, the degradation rate under the influence of random shocks is introduced into the time scale function to solve the impact of random shocks on product reliability, and two cost importance measures are proposed to guide the maintenance selection of the components under limited resources in the system.Finally, a subsystem of an aircraft hydraulic system is analyzed to verify the proposed method’s performance
