Reliability Assessment and Optimization of Complex Systems delves into a range of tools and techniques for designing optimized complex systems. Each chapter explores system modeling and the implementation of various metaheuristics for optimization purposes. This book provides readers in the domain of applied mathematics with a comprehensive understanding of system reliability analysis and improvement, thereby offering substantial value to their knowledge and expertise. System reliability has become the paramount attribute of any production unit. The process of maximizing system reliability while adhering to multiple constraints is referred to as reliability optimization.There are two primary approaches to enhancing a system's performance and reliability: developing a product with reduced failures (failure avoidance) or incorporating resilience to ensure the system continues functioning even in the event of a failure (fault tolerance). - Explains the process and application of reliability-based design optimization - Covers many metaheuristic approaches such as reliability, cost, and the MTTF of the system - Provides the workings and applications of multi-objective optimizations
In recent years, substantial efforts are being made in the development of reliability theory including fuzzy reliability theories and their applications to various real-life problems. Fuzzy set theory is widely used in decision making and multi criteria such as management and engineering, as well as other important domains in order to evaluate the uncertainty of real-life systems. Fuzzy reliability has proven to have effective tools and techniques based on real set theory for proposed models within various engineering fields, and current research focuses on these applications. Advancements in Fuzzy Reliability Theory introduces the concept of reliability fuzzy set theory including various methods, techniques, and algorithms. The chapters present the latest findings and research in fuzzy reliability theory applications in engineering areas. While examining the implementation of fuzzy reliability theory among various industries such as mining, construction, automobile, engineering, and more, this book is ideal for engineers, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students interested in fuzzy reliability theory applications in engineering areas.
This book covers advanced reliability and maintainability knowledge as applied to recent engineering problems. It highlights research in the fields of reliability measures of binary and complex engineering systems, cost analysis, simulations, optimizations, risk factors, and sensitivity analysis. The book scrutinizes various advanced tools and techniques, methodology, and concepts to solve the various engineering problems related to reliability and maintainability of the industrial system at minimum cost and maximum profit. It consists of 15 chapters and offers a platform to researchers, academicians, professionals and scientists to enhance their knowledge and understanding the concept of reliability in engineering.
An everyman flair makes history most authentic and intensely gripping. Nothing captures more gnawingly the acute scarcity in the wake of two successive wars—with China in 1962 and Pakistan in 1965—than the lengthening lines outside ration shops. Fifty Year Road is Bhaskar Roy’s look-back moment, but more crucially, it’s the less-focused account of India that often gets overlooked by historiographers. The Naxalbari uprising, in perspective, was the first and fiercest far-left challenge to the Indian state, born out of deep disillusion of the republic’s first generation with the robust dream come crashing. Each of the subsequent upheavals has had untold sides too: the Bangladesh Libe...

From the early Vedic period, the Vaishyas, the oldest mercantile community of India, generated wealth for the nation through their remarkable efforts. Their Marwari offshoots were appointed by many rulers as ministers, advisors and diwans and were recognised as the first philanthropists in India. The Marwari Heritage takes the reader on a voyage of discovery of the Marwaris who migrated from Rajputana, Haryana, Malwa and its adjoining regions to other parts of India. They braved trials and tribulations in unchartered territories, supporting others of their community, never losing faith in their ability to succeed, and focused on their goal, they became the uncrowned kings, first of trade and...
