Reliability Assessment of Bridge Structure Using Bilal Distribution

Reliability assessments are pivotal in evaluating system quality and have found extensive application in manufacturing. This research delves into a system comprising five components, one of which is a bridge network. The components are presumed to follow a Bilal lifetime distribution with a failure rate that changes over time. Four distinct methods are employed to enhance the components within the system. This study involves the computation of δ-fractiles and reliability equivalence factors (REFs). Additionally, a numerical case study is provided to elucidate the theoretical findings.
