Goal. Assess the reliability of a complex technical system with periodic reconfiguration and compare the results obtained a similar system, but without reconfiguration. Materials and methods. In this article uses the method of statistical modeling (Monte Carlo) to assess the reliability of complex system. We using the normal and exponential distribution of failure time for modeling failures of system elements. Reconfiguration algorithm is the algorithm proposed for the attitude and orbit control system of spacecraft. Results. A computer program has been developed for assessing reliability on the basis of a statistical modeling method, which makes it possible to evaluate systems of varying complexity with exponential and normal distribution, as well as with and without periodic reconfiguration. A quantitative estimate of the reliability as a function of the probability of system failure is obtained. Conclusion. It has been demonstrated that a system with reconfiguration has the best reliability characteristics, both in the case of exponential and normal distribution of failures.

Technical systems in the modern global world are rapidly evolving and improving. In most cases, these are large-scale multi-level systems and one of the problems that arises in the design process of such systems is to determine their reliability. Accordingly, in the paper, a mathematical model based on the Weibull distribution has been developed for determining a computer network reliability. In order to simplify calculating the reliability characteristics, the system is considered to be a hierarchical one, ramified to level 2, with bypass through the level. The developed model allows us to define the following parameters: the probability distribution of the count of working output elements, the availability function of the system, the duration of the system’s stay in each of its working states, and the duration of the system’s stay in the prescribed availability condition. The accuracy of the developed model is high. It can be used to determine the reliability parameters of the large, hierarchical, ramified systems. The research results of modelling a local area computer network are presented. In particular, we obtained the following best option for connecting workstations: 4 of them are connected to the main hub, and the rest (16) are connected to the second level hub, with a time to failure of 4818 h.

Time redundancy is a method of increasing the reliability and efficiency of the operation of systems for various purposes, in particular, energy systems. A system with time redundancy is given additional time (a time reserve) for restoring characteristics. In this paper, based on the theory of semi-Markov processes with a common phase space of states, a semi-Markov model of a two-component system with a component-wise instantly replenished time reserve is constructed. The stationary reliability characteristics of the system under consideration are determined.

Aims of this study are to replicate and elucidate reliability characteristics of the Defense Mechanism Inventory (Gleser & Ihilevich, 1969). College students (Men = 47, Women = 47) were administered the Defense Mechanism Inventory on two occasions separated by a 17-day interval. Whereas test-retest reliabilities for both the total and the women approximated the ranges reported by Gleser and Ihilevich (1969), the range of correlations for the men had a much lower limit. Significant sex differences were found on four of the five dimensions.

In recent years, various types of installations such as floating photovoltaic (PV) and agri-voltaic systems, and BIPV (building integrated photovoltaic system) have been implemented in PV systems and, accordingly, there is a growing demand for new PV designs and materials. In particular, in order to install a PV module in a building, it is important to reduce the weight of the module. The PV module in which low-iron, tempered glass is applied to the front surface, which is generally used, has excellent electrical output and reliability characteristics; however, it is heavy. In order to reduce the weight of the PV module, it is necessary to use a film or plastic-based material, as opposed to low-iron, tempered glass, on the front surface. However, if a material other than glass is used on the front of the PV module, various problems such as reduced electrical output and reduced reliability may occur. Therefore, in this paper, a PV module using a film instead of glass as the front surface was fabricated, and a characteristic analysis and reliability test were conducted. First, the transmittance and UV characteristics of each material were tested, and one-cell and 24-cell PV modules were fabricated and tested for electrical output and reliability. From the results, it was found that the transmittance and UV characteristics of the front material were excellent. In addition, the electrical output and reliability test results confirmed that the front-surface film was appropriate for use in a PV module.
