Investigation of reliability growth in the nuclear industry for probabilistic risk assessment

The current method of determining component failure rates for probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) in the nuclear industry is to take the total number of failures divided by the time over which the failures occurred. The method proposed in this study is the reliability growth method and involves taki...
