Monte Carlo Bayesian System Reliability and MTBF-Confidence Assessment, II. Volume 2. SPARCS-2 Users Manual

Abstract

This SPARCS-2 (Simulation Program for Assessing the Reliabilities of Complex Systems, Version 2) Users Manual provides the information and instructions for using the SPARCS-2 computer program. A glossary is included containing the general terminology and a description of the input terms. The manual also includes a general description of the program system capabilities and its operation as well as a listing of the specific functions performed by the program. In addition, sections containing usage instructions and control or operating instructions are also included. These instructions cover areas such as: data input format, formalized deck structure, and the procedure for putting SPARCS on a load module and for executing the stored program. Two example cases are also included which demonstrate setting up a problem, the input data deck, and the resulting output of the analysis.
