  The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) scheme presents several challenges in terms of reliability and availability. The goal of the study is to demonstrate the requirements for availability and reliability by identifying the key factors on failure effects and analysing possible operational scenarios and designs. Hence, a good knowledge on CLIC system structures, failure modes and failure effects is needed. This paper reports about the set-up of the studies from the definition of the CLIC failure catalogue to the implementation of the models and analysis of the results. It will present in detail the steps that need to be followed when performing such a study. Finally, the CLIC Drive Beam Quadrupoles powering system will be presented as a use-case.

  The LHC exhibited unprecedented availability during the 2016 proton run, producing about 40 fb-1 of integrated luminosity, surpassing the sum of production during the 4 previous years. This was achieved while running steadily with a peak luminosity above the design target of 1034 cm- 2s−1. Individual system performance and an increased experience operating the LHC were fundamental for these achievements, following the consolidations and improvements deployed during the Long Shutdown 1 and the Year End Technical Stop in 2015. The implications of this excellent performance in the context of the High Luminosity LHC are discussed in this paper, with the goal of defining the possible integrated luminosity reach of HL-LHC when considering the different operating conditions and the newly developed systems and technologies.

Crab Cavities will be installed in the High Luminosity LHC in order to increase the effective peak luminosity through a partial compensation of the geometric factor. This will allow extending the levelling time resulting in an increased production of integrated luminosity. Based on the availability of the LHC during 2016 operation, the expected yearly-integrated luminosity of the future HL-LHC was estimated using a Monte Carlo model. Crab cavity faults were added to the observed failure distribu-tions and their impact on integrated luminosity produc-tion as a function of fault time and fault frequency was studied. This allows identifying a breakeven point in luminosity production and defining minimum system availability requirements for the crab cavities to reach the design goal of 250 fb-1 of integrated luminosity per year.
