In this chapter we first illustrate some difficulties associated with probabilistic calculations of the reliability. It appears that these and other difficulties are either overlooked or pushed under the rug, as it were, by the probabilistic analysts. Then the alternative approach called ‘convex modeling’ is presented, and the safety factor’s associated definition is suggested.
