The theoretical analysis of the processes occurring in operation, which determine the reliability of the elements of agricultural units and machines, made it possible to develop a universal approach to the construction of mathematical models of reliability. Practical use of the proposed reliability models is advisable both for accelerated assessment and for predicting reliability at the resource design stage. This article proposes a method for assessing and predicting the reliability of a complex system, if there is information about the reliability level of a sample of its elements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
