Forum: Reliability & Maintainability Questions and Answers
Posted by: Beth Chappel (elizabeth.chappel@goodrich.com ) Organization:Goodrich Date posted: Tue Aug 7 18:46:41 US/Eastern 2001 Subject: Weight Averaging Message: Question- can you weight average reliability over time? For instance, if you have a system that operates at one reliability value R for a third of the time, and another reliability R2 for two-thirds of the time, would the reliability for one hour be = 1/3 R + 2/3 R2?

Date posted: Fri Aug 3 9:48:39 US/Eastern 2001 Subject: Cost of Downtime Message: I'm trying to find general values for the cost of downtime (cost of lost production or the cost of shutdown and restart) for large continuous processes like refineries, paper mills, steel mills, or petrochemical plants? Does anyone have this type of information or know some resources I can tap into?

If anyone is aware of current or on-going work in this area (public or private), I would appreciate it if you could pass along a source and/or point of contact. I'm, also, looking for any informations concerning "a posteriori" techniques to estimate software reliability. Thank you!
