The detailed syllabus for Reliability Engineering M.Tech 2017-2018 (R17) first year second sem is as follows.
M.Tech. I Year II Sem.
Course Objectives:
- To comprehend the concept of Reliability and Unreliability
- Derive the expressions for probability of failure, Expected value and standard deviation of Binominal distribution, Poisson distribution, normal distribution and weibull distributions.
