QUALITY ANALYSIS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS IN FUNCTION OF RELIABILITY THEORY.

Through design of a hydraulic systems various methods can be used for increasing system efficiency. Increasing efficiency while at the same time maintaining reliability and energy consumption is far from an easy task. In this article author have used mathematical and empirical evidence while trying to accomplish aforementioned. Design of hydraulic system is based on reliability theory and results are compared with the data collected from empirical sources and articles from previous research in the field. Based on simulation it is possible to increase efficiency of a hydraulic system either at design stage or during exploitation. Results from statistical modeling and simulation show that it is possible to improve system efficiency and therefore achieve higher overall system performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
