“…[11][12][13][14][15][16] Reliability is usually measured by normal working probability or mean time between failures. [17][18][19][20][21][22] The constellation reliability in the satellite area mainly refers to the inherent reliability, which is the ability of the satellites to work normally.…”

To evaluate the system reliability and the constellation availability of remote sensing satellite, in this study, a novel single satellite availability modeling and analysis strategy using on-orbit backup and ground added launch backup is proposed. First, considering the characteristics of remote sensing satellites, the calculation formulas of constellation availability are given in detail. Then, the process of system reliability modeling is also illustrated step by step. Finally, an availability evaluation example of remote sensing satellite constellation is introduced to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Complex mechanical system is usually composed of several subsystems, which are often coupled with each other. Reliabilitybased multidisciplinary design optimization (RBMDO) is an efficient method to design such complex system under uncertainties. However, the present RBMDO methods ignored the correlations between uncertainties. In this paper, through combining the ellipsoidal set theory and first-order reliability method (FORM) for multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO), characteristics of correlated uncertainties are investigated. Furthermore, to improve computational efficiency, the sequential optimization and reliability assessment (SORA) strategy is utilized to obtain the optimization result. Both a mathematical example and a case study of an engineering system are provided to illustrate the feasibility and validity of the proposed method.

“…Hao and Su 16 make the research about the bivariate correlated degradation model based on random effect nonlinear diffusion process and copula functions. Beside these works, a lot of researches about multiple failure modes have been given by Huang and Askin, 17 Bagdonavicius et al, 18,19 Belmansour and Nourelfath, 20 Meng and colleagues [21][22][23][24] , and Sklar 25 and Zhu. 26,27 However, previous researches only focus on the independency of performance characteristics or multivariate normal distribution, which are not usually suitable in many practical situations.…”

In practical engineering, reliability analysis of products plays an important role in assessing the corresponding remaining life. Products often have more than one failure mechanism, which means reliability should be evaluated by two or more performance characteristics. To resolve the above problem, based on the degradation values distribution method utilization, copula functions as the link functions of their marginal distributions are introduced in this study. The performance characteristics are also considered the dependent as well as independent to make a comparison. Moreover, a framework for reliability assessment of products with the multiple performance degradation is developed. Finally, the proposed methodology and model is validated effectively by the fatigue cracks data from the literature. From the results, we can see that the proposed model is more accurate.
