Description
Summary:Steering systems are one of the most important components of a car and have a direct impact on safety and driving comfort. Therefore, high reliability is required of them. One of the methods of object reliability estimation may be the grey system theory. This method can be used not only to calculate the number of failures, but also to calculate the wear of mating parts, and the vibrations of engines and rolling elements. This work presents the use of the grey system theory for the examination of motor vehicle steering system reliability. The forecast number of failures was calculated for the various components of the steering system and the grey system accuracy was assessed. This is aimed at finding out how useful this theory is for forecasting the number of steering system failures.
