Most of the literature in reliability deals with modelling and estimation in non-repairable systems; however this book considers repairable systems only. The first three chapters discuss point processes such as homogeneous and non-homogeneous Poisson processes and renewal, together with some background material on exponential, Weibull and gamma distributions. The remaining two chapters describe methods for the analysis of data from single and multiple repairable systems and include graphical methods, point and interval estimation (including Bayesian estimation), hypothesis testing, goodness of fit and prediction. Each chapter is completed with a set of exercises. The book is written for engineers and statisticians and would be accessible to readers with a good grounding in mathematical statistics and probability. It could be used as a recommended text in an advanced undergraduate or graduate course in reliability.
