Common reliability metrics for an item include

1 The mean time‐to‐failure (MTTF)

2 The number of failures per time unit (failure frequency)

3 The probability that the item does not fail in a time interval (survivor probability)

4 The probability that the item is able to function at time (availability at time )

These and several other reliability metrics are given a mathematical precise definition in Chapter 5, and are discussed and exemplified in all the subsequent chapters.
