System Failure Rate Calculation
Abstract
The article deals with methodology of a system failure rate calculation that is based on the adoption of the condition l.t<<1. Assuming that the condition is satisfied, the serial-parallel system failure rate calculation is easier and the results are either the same or worse from a view of system reliability evaluation. So the results can be accepted. A simple example will be given as a confirmation of the assertion.
