RELIABILITY ANALYSIS OF PISTON MANUFACTURING SYSTEM
Keywords:
reliability, piston manufacturing system, fault tree analysisAbstract
Now days, internal combustion engines are used in most of the automobiles and mechanical machineries. The piston is a part without which no internal combustion engine can work i.e., piston plays a vital role in almost all types of vehicles. So, the reliability of piston manufacturing system is most essential for the proper functioning of vehicles. In this paper, fault tree method is used to analyze the reliability of piston manufacturing system. Also, risk reduction worth is adopted as a measure of importance for identifying the crucial element that has significant impact on the reliability.
