Simulation Methods for Reliability and Availability of Complex Systems

Simulation Methods for Reliability and Availability of Complex Systems discusses the use of computer simulation-based techniques and algorithms to determine reliability and availability (R and A) levels in complex systems. The book: shares theoretical or applied models and decision support systems that make use of simulation to estimate and to improve system R and A levels, forecasts emerging technologies and trends in the use of computer simulation for R and A and proposes hybrid approaches to the development of efficient methodologies designed to solve R and A-related problems in real-life systems. Dealing with practical issues, Simulation Methods for Reliability and Availability of Complex Systems is designed to support managers and system engineers in the improvement of R and A, as well as providing a thorough exploration of the techniques and algorithms available for researchers, and for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.

An electrical power system consists of a large number of generation, transmission, and distribution subsystems. It is a very large and complex system; hence, its installation and management are very difficult tasks. An electrical system is essentially a very large network with very large data sets. Handling these data sets can require much time to analyze and subsequently implement. An electrical system is necessary but also potentially very dangerous if not operated and controlled properly. The demand for electricity is ever increasing, so maintaining load demand without overloading the system poses challenges and difficulties. Thus, planning, installing, operating, and controlling such a l...

Harnessing Operational Systems Engineering to Support Peacebuilding

Operational systems engineering is a methodology that identifies the important components of a complex system, analyzes the relationships among those components, and creates models of the system to explore its behavior and possible ways of changing that behavior. In this way it offers quantitative and qualitative techniques to support the design, analysis, and governance of systems of diverse scale and complexity for the delivery of products or services. Many peacebuilding interventions function essentially as the provision of services in response to demands elicited from societies in crisis. At its core, operational systems engineering attempts to understand and manage the supply of service...

WRAP THE SCRAP WITH DMAIC: Strategic Deployment of Six Sigma in Indian Foundry SMEs

Six Sigma approach is generally employed to improve the sigma level of manufacturing or service processes by reducing their deviations and defects. Six Sigma provides the opportunity to eliminate mistakes, improve morale and save money. Doing things right in first time and keeping them consistent is the only idea behind Six Sigma. Its fundamental objective is to achieve customer satisfaction with continuous improvement in quality and productivity. Mostly we are emphasizing on various tools or techniques being used during DMAIC projects and almost ignore the procedure to execute different phases of the Six Sigma project. This book provides unique step by step methodologies to perform Define, ...
