Abstract

An overview of research study on Reliability and Availability analysis made by Pooja Bhatia and Rajiv Kumar [5], [6], [8], [9] from 2011 to 2013 is presented in this review paper. Their work is on availability and profit analysis of reliability model, impact of ignored faults on reliability and availability and profit evaluation of the stochastic model on a centrifuge system working in a thermal power plant. Their papers deal with a single unit centrifuge system that undergoes periodic rest wherein faults are classified as major, minor and ignored faults. The occurrence of a minor faults leads to degradation of the system whereas occurrence of a major faults leads to failure of the system. Various measures of the system effectiveness are obtained using Markov processes and regenerative point technique. The analysis of the system is carried out on the basis of the graphical studies and conclusions are drawn regarding the reliability, availability, profit and cost of the system. The objective is to highlight and compare different aspect of their research study, explore application and other related manufacturing plant and identify potential research directions from reviewed study.
