In the fields of reliability application, the most commonly used test methods for reliability qualification are zero failure tests since they require fewer test samples and less test time compared to other test methods that guarantee the same reliability with a given confidence level. An economic zero failure test plan is developed that minimizes the total cost related to perform a life test to guarantee a specified reliability of a product with a given confidence level and a numerical example is provided to illustrate the use of the proposed test method.

The first task for the development of a train system is to define the system and to determine its requirements. Reliability target is one of the requirements defined in the system requirements. In railway applications it is advised to follow the procedures given in IEC 62278 to fulfill reliability requirements. The reliability requirements are derived from the customer's needs. The way in which the system requirements reflect the customer's needs is strongly dependent on the characteristics of the product. In general the customer of commercial trains presents the system requirements from their needs. However, the relation between the customer and supplier is equivocal for a project to development a prototype train, and the reliability program should be different from that of an usual commercial project. This paper deals with the reliability management and assessment plan carried out for the on-going "Next generation high-speed train development project".

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to propose a method to calculate the optimal preventive maintenance cycle of radar used in the aviation weapon system of ROKAF. Methods: A hybrid model is used to estimate the optimal preventive maintenance cycle in a system that can perform condition based predictive maintenance (CBPM) through continuous diagnosis. The failure data of the radars operating in the military were used to calculate the reliability. Results: According to the research results, the reliability threshold of the radar began to decrease after 5 flights, and decreased rapidly after 12 flights. Since the second check, costs have continued to decline. Conclusion: A method is proposed to determine the cycle of optimal preventive maintenance of radar within operational budget through modeling results between reliability limit and cost for radar. The results can be used to determine the optimal preventive maintenance cycle and frequency of various avionics equipment.

The primary objective of Supply Chain Management (SCM) is to optimize the cash, material and information flow considering all components of Supply Chain (SC) . The plan, established for achieving such objective, is called Supply Chain Planning (SCP) . This SCP gives each SC component specific volume or operation task, should be done in specific due date, for optimizing SC. In detail, the degree of accomplishment for SCP, depends on the SCP achievement of each SC components, is very close to successful SCM. However, this achievement is affected by uncertainties about time and volume. In general, reliability concepts means the probability that a product or system will perform its specified function under prescribed conditions without failure for a specified period of time. Therefore, the concept of Supply Chain Reliability (SCR) and an analytic methodology to calculate the degree of achievement SCP using reliability concept are proposed in this paper. SCR means that the degree of achievement for SCP considering all SC components in due date. SCR can be used to measure the performance of whole supply chain and indicate the direction of SCP.

This study has its purpose on analyzing the problems of data connection between general management institution and itemized management institution shown through the college information disclosure project and presenting the plan to substantialize data connection between general management institution and itemized management institution. To make close inquiry into the related problem and induce plans for substantialization, this study analyzed the previous related research data as well as the connection status of information disclosure item of Korea Foundation for the Promotion of Private School, the itemized management institution, to induce problems; induced substantialization plan for data connection of itemized connection institution. As for the substantialization plan based on such, plan to integrate schools and department codes, plan to automatize data connection and plan to secure reliability of information were established. It is anticipated that the plan to substantialize data connection between management institutions reckoned through the result of this study would be used as the basic data for information disclosure project providing various reliable information from Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, General management institution, itemized management institution and college.

Purpose: To develop the reliability growth planning for a subsystem of guided weapon system using PM2-Continuous model. Methods: The target MTBF of the subsystem is set by allocating the system target MTBF to the lower level, where ARINC method is applied. Other model parameters such as initial MTBF, management strategy ratio and average fix effectiveness factor are chosen from historical growth parameter estimates. Given the values of model parameters, the reliability growth planning curve using PM2-Continuous model is constructed and the sensitivity analyses are performed for the changes of model parameters. Results: We have developed the reliability growth plan for a subsystem of guided weapon system using PM2-Continuous model. It was found that the smaller the ratio of initial MTBF to target MTBF, the smaller the management strategy ratio, the smaller the average fix effectiveness factor, and the shorter the development test period, the higher reliability growth is required. Conclusion: The result of this study will be used as a basis for establishing the reliability growth plan, the test period setting and the budget appropriation for the similar system entering the system development stage in the future.

This paper is described the System of effective RAMS Management established for AREX Railway System. This system for AREX's E&M system contains FRACAS(Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action Plan) and computation of RAMS indices. This procedure is applying to improve the Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety for railway system in operation stage. Furthermore, this system would be a basis of RCM(Reliability Centred Maintenance).

A reliability Acceptance Sampling Plan (RASP) is developed for testing the exponential mean lifetime under the periodic (i. e., equally-spaced) inspection and Type I censoring. Under the periodic inspection, the exact sampling distribution of maximum likelihood (ML) estimator of mean can not be derived. Hence sample size and acceptance criterion are determined by the algorithm proposed on the basis of Monte Carlo simulation such that the producer's and consumer's risks are satisfied for given censoring time and number of inspections. In addition, the developed RASP is compared in terms of sampling size, OC curve, and expected completion time. The effects for the RASP by the chosen inspection scheme are also discussed.

In general, weapon systems require very high reliability. Recently Korean defense reliability technologies growth rapidly. However, there are some matters of reform in reliability management, reliability assurance, and defense acquisition environment, etc. In this paper, we propose the reliability development plan for Korean defense system as follows; 1) reliability improvement programs for each acquisition stages, 2) reliability improvement methods for logistics support, 3) reliability improvement programs for developers and manufacturers, 4) reform matters for the defense acquisition law, 6) establishment of defense reliability assessment center and defense reliability committee.

The works of defence reliability have begun since the ILS team was organized in ROKA on March 2003. After that DAPA was opened at January 1st 2006 and those of defence reliability were reinforced. But the present of defence reliability is not enough. Many development and changes are required in the following area. The first is Master-plan making of defence reliability, and the second is making of the process of reliability. And then we have to enhance reliability of weapon system in the operation and support phase. The last is that policy is firmly executed among the defence organizations.
