Abstract

The field of reliability engineering plays a crucial role in ensuring the optimal performance and longevity of various systems and equipment. This paper delves into the interdisciplinary approaches and methodologies employed in the field, focusing on the optimization of maintenance strategies. By integrating principles from statistics, probability, and system design, reliability engineering aims to assess the likelihood of failures and devise preventive measures. The paper explores different maintenance optimization techniques, such as condition-based maintenance, predictive maintenance, and reliability-centered maintenance. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of cost-benefit analysis to ensure that maintenance activities are both effective and economically viable. Through a comprehensive examination of these aspects, the paper provides insights into how reliability engineering and maintenance optimization can enhance the overall performance and lifespan of systems and equipment.
