Simcenter RAMS covers the quantitative dependability disciplines — reliability, availability, maintainability, and safety — used in regulated industries (rail, aerospace, defence, nuclear, medical) where system-level dependability must be demonstrably justified.
Capabilities
- Reliability block diagrams.
- Fault-tree analysis (FTA).
- Failure-mode-and-effects analysis (FMEA / FMECA).
- Markov-chain availability modelling.
- Maintainability and life-cycle-cost analysis.
- Safety-integrity-level (SIL) assessment per IEC 61508 / 61511.
Where it fits
- Rail rolling-stock and signalling per EN 50126 / 50128 / 50129.
- Aerospace per ARP 4761.
- Functional-safety per ISO 26262 (automotive) or IEC 61508 (industrial).
- Any tender response or regulatory submission requiring quantitative dependability evidence.
