Abstract
A review on reliability engineering applications in 4 industrial domains namely electronic, software, nuclear and aerospace from the 2000′s to the present day is compiled. The progress in industrial maintenance activities and Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) linked to these domains are explored. Then, the mathematical aspect of reliability evaluation, in particular multi-state system (MSS), which characterizes the system complexity in these domains are presented. Trends progression are obtained through literature of respective areas as well as available technical information and industrial circulations. Through this review, trend similarities between the mentioned domains and the challenges in reliability science implementation are uncovered. The methods employed in respective industry are explained, with each strength and weakness analysed, together with application examples. This work reveals the role of Prognostic and Health Management (PHM), HRA and analytical methodologies such as MSS and Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) in managing reliability of complex industrial systems. Finally, it stresses on the importance of synergy between these frameworks to ensure a complete reliability assessment in the industry.
