In aircraft project management, reliability and maintainability are fundamental for ensuring system safety, for optimizing the manufacturing process and for improving assembly/disassembly operations when maintenance actions are required. The inclusion of such requirements helps to minimize life cycle costs, augments the residual lifetime of aircraft and consequently increases customer satisfaction. While most papers published in the aircraft engineering literature are rather evasive or do not accurately describe the role of reliability and maintainability (RM) methods in early design phases, this paper elucidates the problem. This paper discusses various concepts such as design for reliability and risk assessment analysis for improving aircraft safety and reliability at the deployment stages. The article also focuses on how reliability prediction issues are addressed using various methods, tools and standards, such as failure modes and effect analysis, fault tree analysis and guidelines such as MIL-STD-217f and ARP4754. Finally, this paper demonstrates that reliability is crucial to consider in all phases of the life cycle of an aircraft.

“…System development and safety assessment are intimately linked and crossing each other (see Figure 7). With the growing of aviation industry, safety assessment goes through "safety experiment"-"FMEA"-"FHA, FMEA, and FTA" and puts forward examination of software [40]. Moreover, FAA and EASA suggest safety analysis including FHA, PSSA, SSA, FMEA, and CCA.…”

System safety technique plays an important role in commercial aircraft's design and research; it greatly influences safety and airworthiness as well. According to the development of foreign system safety, system safety concepts are explicitly defined, and its research topics and key techniques are analyzed in the whole life cycle, including human factor, organization, economic affordability, etc. Problems existing in domestic system safety field are summarized. Furthermore, advices on how to implement system safety work are put forward.

“…The body of a module is effectively created by Rule 5. After that, basic declaration instructions (Rules 6-8), commands (Rules 9-11) and repair transitions (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) are created. To complete the translation strategy, formula expressions are created (Rules 23-28) using a set of rules that decomposes all logic expressions (Rules 29-35).…”

“…This can introduce errors in the analysis. Moreover, they are not cost-effective, because the probability of each failure condition (top event) must be evaluated singly (just one failure condition at a time), requiring more effort to undertake the analysis of the whole system [1,17].…”

Abstract. Safety assessment is a well-established process for assuring the safety and reliability of critical (aeronautical) systems. It uses probabilistic (quantitative) analysis to provide precise measures about the safety requirements of a system. Traditionally, quantitative safety assessment uses fault-tree analysis, but certification authorities also allow the use of Markov models. In this paper we propose a strategy for quantitative safety assessment based on the Prism model-checker. Prism models are extracted systematically from a high-level model via the application of translation rules. We illustrate our strategy with a representative system design from the airborne industry.
