Abstract
It is very important to set a reliability target and verify the requirement when procuring the rolling stock in the aspect of safety, availability and LCC. While there are a few different methods to verify the reliability target, it is required that the most appropriate method should be used considering the characteristics of rolling stock itself and the operation environment. Even though recently the quantitative reliability requirements are widely adopted in domestic market, there is no substantial contents in the various standards and guidelines. In this study we investigate the various reliability demonstration test plans and evaluate them for rolling stock application. And three test plans among them were applied to the real operation data.
