User:Prakash.Tiwari1/Reliability Block Diagrams

Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD) are relatively new concept and widely popular mainly in engineering and science. A RBD is a graphical representation of the components or assets of a system and how they are reliability-wise connected. Depending on the nature of the system, blocks can be connected in series-in a situation failure of a block results system failure or in parallel-failure of a block doesn't fail the system, however failure of that block may increase the risk of failure of whole system.

All the parts of a car are represented by blocks and arranged in series and parallel. Headlights are arranged in parallel as we can assume that failure of a headlight will not stop the car for running, this is reprepresented by a node-defining one out of two path required to run the system.

Blocks at the begaining and end (START and END) are optional.
