In order to construct a reliability block diagram, the reliability-wise configuration of the components must be determined. Consequently, the analysis method used for computing the reliability of a system will also depend on the reliability-wise configuration of the components/subsystems. That configuration can be as simple as units arranged in a pure series or parallel configuration. There can also be systems of combined series/parallel configurations or complex systems that cannot be decomposed into groups of series and parallel configurations.
A reliability block diagram (RBD) is a graphical representation of how the components of a system are reliability-wise connected. Building RBDs in BlockSim involves adding blocks to a diagram and then arranging and connecting the blocks so that they represent the reliability-wise configuration of a system or process. Each block represents a component of the overall system or process that is represented by the RBD. You can define individual blocks with the reliability and other characteristics of the components they represent, and also customize the appearance of each block to enhance the presentation of your diagrams.

BlockSim Analytical RBD

A reliability block diagram (RBD) is a graphical representation of how the components of a system are reliability-wise connected. Building RBDs in BlockSim involves adding blocks to a diagram and then arranging and connecting the blocks so that they represent the reliability-wise configuration of a system or process. Each block represents a component of the overall system or process that is represented by the RBD. You can define individual blocks with the reliability and other characteristics of the components they represent, and also customize the appearance of each block to enhance the presentation of your diagrams.
