The book has been developed in conjunction with NERS 462, a
course offered every year to seniors and graduate students in the
University of Michigan NERS program.
The first half of the book covers the principles of risk
analysis, the techniques used to develop and update a reliability
data base, the reliability of multi-component systems, Markov
methods used to analyze the unavailability of systems with repairs,
fault trees and event trees used in probabilistic risk assessments
PRAs, and
