Abstract: The new reliability design theory of multiple failure modes for machine elements is presented. The reliability design computing method of multiple failure modes for machine elements is developed, and the Ditlevsen theory is used to prove the new theory. Finally, an example is given to show how the new theory is used.

Key words: multi-modes correlation, correlation coefficient, integrated correlation coefficient, reliability
