The term phase diagram is used in many disciplines with different meanings.

The term phase diagram is used in many disciplines with different meanings. In physical chemistry, mineralogy and materials science, a phase diagram is a type of graph used to show the equilibrium conditions among the thermodynamically-distinct phases. In mathematics and physics, a phase diagram is used as a synonym for a phase space. In reliability engineering we introduce the term phase diagram, or more specifically Reliability Phase Diagram or RPD as an extension of the reliability block diagram (RBD) approach to graphically describe the sequence of different operational and/or maintenance phases experienced by a system. Whereas a reliability block diagram (RBD) is used to analyze the reliability of a system with a fixed configuration, a phase diagram can be used to represent/analyze a system whose reliability configuration and/or other properties change over time. In other words, during a mission the system may undergo changes in its reliability configuration (RBD), available resources or the failure, maintenance and/or throughput properties of its individual components. |
