Subject: Reliability Apportionment
Message:
I am looking for information in relation to apportionment and the techniques used for calculating it. I have calculated the apportionment for a System with 6 sub-systems (Using the Equal Apportionment Technique from MIL-HDBK-338). NOW I am trying to calculate the apportionment for the sub systems with the new information that each sub system has now been "weighted" (i.e sub sys 1 will be responsible for 20% fo all system failures and Sub sys 2 47% etc etc). Can anybody tell me how I will calculate the new reliability apportionment based on the "weighted" factors or let me know of any techniques/equations that I can use.

Thanks for the help.
