Reliability Engineering Handbook, (With CD-ROM)

This book includes both the art and science of Reliability engineering. It may be the most comprehensive reliability-engineering book available. All aspects of the field from basic concepts to accelerated testing are covered including SPC designed experiments human factors and reliability management. The material includes both the theory of reliability systems and its application as prescribed by industrial and government standards. It includes the greatest part of the body of knowledge of the practice of reliability engineering; as such it is an excellent desk reference. It develops the necessary mathematics for more advanced reliability concepts. The text expands basic concepts in a way is that easy to understand; many fully worked examples are included.
