Abstract

The reliability field has gone through fruition development and burst through during previous four decades. The current paper reflects a historical outlook of momentous expansion and methodically spells out the contributions in reliability field since its commencement. The paper additionally looks into the significance and advancement of a range of numerical methods for the analysis of reliability, diagrammatical models, logical, and other reliability tools that had fashioned the appearance of reliability concept. Higher productivity and maximum profitability have nowadays become very essential for the processing industries to ensure their survival. To meet this challenge, all the systems and subsystems of these industries should have high reliability and availability. If the manufacturing systems are of improved quality and are having higher availability levels, this will definitely lead to enhancement of productivity and hence profitability. It has been realized that reliability and availability have great importance in all the processing industries and complex plants. Reliability concept is of great importance at design stage, development stage, procurement stage, operation stage, and maintenance stage. The study has been undertaken by many researchers for recognizing the performance behavior of systems in various process industries. A critical review has been conducted to present the brief overview of performance behavior and optimization of different systems related to various process industries. Lastly, the paper emphasizes the restrictions with on-hand methods for analysis of reliability and make out a small number of latent openings for more research.
