Preface

Reliability and safety analysis are the important application in the mathematical engineering. Nothing last forever is so is the life of engineering systems. The main reason of the failure of engineering system ranges from minor inconvenience to signify to economic loss and deaths. Designers, manufactures and end users attempt by employing efforts to minimize the occurrence of the failure. This field creates a wide range of problems due to their practical importance and give rise to the new development to create methods and can contain an interesting mathematical procedure. Reliability deals with the failure concept, whereas safety deals with the consequence of failure. Reliability engineering explores the failures to improve the performance of engineering systems. It plays a vital role in different sectors such as chemical, nuclear facilities and aerospace and can impose potential hazards. It also gains much more importance among prac
