Non-repairable systems are those that do not get repaired when they fail. Specifically, the components of the system are not repaired or replaced when they fail. Most household products, for example, are non-repairable. This does not necessarily mean that they cannot be repaired, but rather that it does not make economic sense to do so. For example, repairing a four-year-old microwave oven is economically unreasonable, since the repair would cost approximately as much as purchasing a new unit. &lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td colspan=&quot;2&quot; class=&quot;diff-side-added&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

This is done by repairing or replacing the failed components in the system. An automobile is an example of a repairable system. If the automobile is rendered inoperative when a component or subsystem fails, that component is typically repaired or replaced rather than purchasing a new automobile. In repairable systems, two types of distributions are considered: failure distributions and repair distributions. A failure distribution describes the time it takes for a component to fail. A repair distribution describes the time it takes to repair a component (time-to-repair instead of time-to-failure). In the case of repairable systems, the failure distribution itself is not a sufficient measure of system performance, since it does not account for the repair distribution. A new performance criterion called availability can be calculated, which accounts for both the failure and repair distributions. &lt;/del&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td colspan=&quot;2&quot; class=&quot;diff-side-added&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Systems can be generally classified into non-repairable and repairable systems. Non-repairable systems are those that do not get repaired when they fail. Specifically, the components of the system are not repaired or replaced when they fail. Most household products, for example, are non-repairable. This does not necessarily mean that they cannot be repaired, but rather that it does not make economic sense to do so. For example, repairing a four-year-old microwave oven is economically unreasonable, since the repair would cost approximately as much as purchasing a new unit. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, repairable systems are those that get repaired when they fail. This is done by repairing or replacing the failed components in the system. An automobile is an example of a repairable system. If the automobile is rendered inoperative when a component or subsystem fails, that component is typically repaired or replaced rather than purchasing a new automobile. In repairable systems, two types of distributions are considered: failure distributions and repair distributions. A failure distribution describes the time it takes for a component to fail. A repair distribution describes the time it takes to repair a component (time-to-repair instead of time-to-failure). In the case of repairable systems, the failure distribution itself is not a sufficient measure of system performance, since it does not account for the repair distribution. A new performance criterion called availability can be calculated, which accounts for both the failure and repair distributions. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Repairable systems and availability will be discussed in Chapters 7 and 8. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
