Keywords: reliability analysis, multi-physics system simulation, aircraft electrical network

A method is proposed for the reliability analysis of complex systems. This method is based on a stochastic approach that makes use of on multi-physics systems simulation models. The overall reliability of any system architecture can be statistically determined based on the reliability of its individual components or sub-systems.
