Abstract
The paper considers application of the physical and statistical approach to the issue of nanosystems reliability. A general method of solving the main equation in this approach is suggested and the solution in quadratures is obtained in one-dimensional stationary case. It is used to study the behaviour of entropy and the reliability function under certain assumptions. The cases of constant, linear, and quadratic degradation rates are analysed. In the first two cases the results correspond to physical intuition while in the last case (quadratic rate) the formal solution demonstrates counterintuitive behaviour. Numerical correlations between the distribution entropy dynamics and the reliability function are given.
