Abstract

Importance measures usually address either small changes in component performance, as it is the case of the Differential, Birnbaum and Criticality importance measures, or drastic changes, as in the case of Risk Achievment and Risk Reduction Worth, or status quo, as in the case of the Fussell-vesely (FV) importance measure. Recently, the total order reliability importance measure (D T) has been introduced to cope with the presence of finite changes. In this work, discuss the relationship between FV and D T. This relationship helps us providing further insights on the meaning of both Fv and D T.
