Abstract

The strength-reliability of equipment is defined as the probability that the strength of the equipment exceeds its stress. Augmentation of strength-reliability of equipments gives better service protection and longevity. In this paper, the concept of Augmentation Strategy Plan (ASP) is introduced under three possible cases to increase the strength-reliability. Assume that strength and stress of equipment, both follow gamma distribution and strength reliability expressions for all three cases are derived. Possible combinations of parameters are tabulated, for desired level of strength-reliability. Also cost aspects of such augmented situations have been discussed.
