Interval Uncertainty Analysis of Bridge Structure Systems’ Reliability

Industrial safety, reliability and uncertainties are common phenomena. System and model uncertainties play a key role in model-based investigation of reliability of systems with complex interconnections such as vehicle sensory networks. This paper proposes a matrix algebraic approach interval analysis method to investigate uncertainty of BSSs’ reliability. The uncertainty intervals of system reliability can be determined by the proposed method. Using these results maintenance cost and working expenditures of investigated manufacturing unit can be estimated, the maintenance management can receive specific supporting data to make correct decisions.
