The Probability of failure on demand is the likelihood that the system will be in a failed
state at a random moment. This is synonymous with the steady state unavailability which
is given by:
Unavailability = (λ x MDT)/(1 + (λ x MDT))
which approximates to, λ x MDT for small values of λ x MDT
where λ is the failure rate and MDT is the Mean Down Time.
This is consistent with the expression for Availability given as: MTBF/(MTBF+MDT)
The failure rates used, and thus the derived availabilities are those credibly associated with
a well proven design after a suitable period of reliability growth.
