Probability a product will perform as promoted for a given time period under
given conditions
• Functional Failure: does not operate as designed
• Reliability Failure: does not operate as designed as long as it is supposed to
• Maintainability: related to durability and refers to once a product breaks, what is the probability it can become functional again

Mean Time to Failure MTTF (non repairable) or Mean Time
Between Failure MTBF (repairable items) is theta =
1/lambda

For a given p of failure, what is the p of failure in a given time interval p = e ^ (-
lambda (t2-t1))
• number happening in given time that is Poisson distributed which means the interval between is exponentially distributed
