Abstract: Abstract The advent of quantum computing, capitalizing on quantum–mechanical phenomena like superposition and entanglement, promises a paradigm shift in computational capabilities. As industries continually seek more robust computational methods, quantum computing stands out, offering potential solutions to previously intractable problems. This chapter goes into the applications of quantum computing in reliability analysis. Beginning with an introduction to the basics of quantum computing and its prospective industrial applications, the discussion navigates through quantum algorithms, emphasizing their efficiency in optimization tasks. The profound implications of quantum computing in revolutionizing reliability modelling are elucidated, spotlighting its capacity for intricate system simulations and data processing. However, the journey is challenging; issues of decoherence, scalability, and integration in existing systems underscore the current limitations. Nonetheless, the horizon is promising. Anticipated advancements hint at hybrid systems harnessing classical and quantum computing strengths, quantum-enhanced machine learning, and superior simulations. As quantum computing matures, its potential to redefine industrial system reliability and maintainability emerges unequivocally.
