Availability from MTBF and Mean Time to Repair
Availability is uptime fraction, MTBF/(MTBF + MTTR), and it is the quantity an operator actually experiences. It is included because a design decision that raises MTBF while raising repair time can lower availability — the trade the reliability number alone cannot show.
This Concept is waiting for its first lesson!
