7.1 Reliability function

For a given component, if its operation starts at time t = 0, we define its lifetime τ as the first time it fails or, what amounts to the same thing, the time during which it has functioned correctly, τ is a random variable and we define the (non-decreasing) function Q (t)=ℙ (τ<t)...
