System Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability Analysis

RBDs, fault trees, and Markov diagrams

ReliaSoft BlockSim provides a comprehensive platform for system reliability, availability, maintainability and related analyses that allows you to model the most complex systems and processes using reliability block diagrams (RBDs), fault tree analysis (FTA), or Markov diagrams. Using exact computations or discrete event simulation, BlockSim facilitates a wide variety of analyses for both repairable and non-repairable systems.

The software also now contains optionally licensed features for Process Flow and Event Analysis (formerly known as RENO).

Discover what makes BlockSim a comprehensive platform for product designers and asset managers

Assess system reliability and lower the failure rates

Quickly build complex models to identify potential areas of poor reliability and where improvements can be made.

Make predictions and recognize the patterns

Model the behavior of a system with Markov diagrams, and analyze partial or degraded working states.

Find the most effective ways to improve system performance

Design any configuration to analyze its reliability, maintainability, and availability using load sharing, standby redundancy, phases, and duty cycles to represent the system.

Estimate production capacity and identify critical components

Identify bottlenecks in production, optimize resource allocation, and improve the processing efficiency of any system with throughput analysis.

Enhance your maintenance optimization and simulation modeling

Model the reliability and maintainability of equipment and analyze multiple flow types within the system using process flow diagrams.

Make crucial decisions easier with life cycle cost analysis

Specify the direct and indirect costs associated with the maintenance strategies that you have defined, including costs related to downtime, maintenance crews, spares, etc.

Use flowchart modeling approach and simulation to build and run any complex analyses

Event Analysis module allows you to model and run complex analyses for any probabilistic or deterministic scenario and optimize the results needed for further analysis. Develop ideas, workflows and estimate results of interest with a familiar and intuitive flowcharting concept. Using sensitivity analysis you can track real-time values and evaluate equipment’s behavior over time with reliability or availability results.
