 Importance analysis of a system based on survival signature by structural importance measuresPatrik Rusnak, Elena Zaitseva, Vitaly Levashenko, Igor Bolvashenkov and Kammermann, Jörg Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 2024, vol. 243, issue C Abstract: The analysis of the influence of system components on system failure is a typical problem in reliability engineering which is known as importance analysis of a system. There are different methods for the calculation of the importance measures of the system components. In this paper, a new method for the calculation of structural importance measures that are one of the types of importance measures is presented. The novelty of the proposed method is the use of the survival signature instead of the structure function for the computation of the importance measures. The proposed method is based on the tool of logical differential calculus, in particular, direct partial logical derivatives. The advantages and practical applicability of the proposed method were confirmed in the analysis of the reliability characteristics of the fuel system of the propulsion complex of a passenger aircraft.
