tailieunhanh - RELIABILITY, MAINTAINABILITY AND RISK

Safety/Reliability engineering did not develop as a unified discipline, but grew out of the integration of a number of activities, previously the province of various branches of engineering. Since no human activity can enjoy zero risk, and no equipment has a zero rate of failure, there has emerged a safety technology for optimizing risk. This attempts to balance the risk of a given activity against its benefits and seeks to assess the need for further risk reduction depending upon the cost. | IChemE r u L-f- Om rri ÍỲíỊirmí Eighth Edition RELIABILITY MAINTAINABILITY AND RISK Dr. David J.
