New downloadable example: Amplifier Reliability

Posted 11 years ago

One of the new features in SystemModeler 4.1 is the possibility to use reliability information in your models. This new example: Electrical circuit reliability shows how to combine reliability information and Modelica models. The example shows how to retrieve reliability information from a model with WSMModelReliability:

{rAmp, rAmpH} = {WSMModelReliability[model], WSMModelReliability[modelHot]}

And how to compute some typical measures such as survival function:

Survival function and MTTF marked

Go ahead and download the new example from the examples page and try it out yourself!

Thank you Johan. The "devil is (indeed) in the details". It seemed like a reasonable approach but before I wandered too far off the reservation I thought I would consult the experts.

Good question. This methodology can be used for much larger systems than this small electrical circuit. Your case sounds like a good application. One caveat: faults are models as independent. This assumption is sound in many cases, but not all.
