Reliability Analysis of Repairable Systems Considering Failure Detection Equipments

Reliability Analysis of Redundant Repairable System with Degraded Failure

This investigation deals with the transient analysis of the machine repair system consisting of M-operating units operating under the care of single repairman. To improve the system reliability/availability, Y warm standby and S cold standby units are provided to replace the failed units. In case when all spares are being used, the failure of units occurs in degraded fashion. In such situation ...

Developing a method for reliability allocation of series-parallel systems by considering common cause failure

Reliability allocation has an essential connection to design for reliability and is an important activity in the product design and development process. In determining the reliability of subsystems or components on the basis of goal reliability, attention must be paid to failure effect, failure information, and improvement opportunities based upon real potentials for reliability improvement. In...

Reliability analysis of repairable systems using system dynamics modeling and simulation

Repairable standby system’s study and analysis is an important topic in reliability. Analytical techniques become very complicated and unrealistic especially for modern complex systems. There have been attempts in the literature to evolve more realistic techniques using simulation approach for reliability analysis of systems. This paper proposes a hybrid approach called as Markov system ...

Analysis of Contaminated Field Failure Data for Repairable Systems

Reliability Analysis of Three Elements Series and Parallel Systems under Time-varying Fuzzy Failure Rate

Reliability is the most important performance issue in the engineering design process but in the real world problems, there are limitations for using the conventional reliability. Fuzzy logic has proved to be effective in expressing uncertainties in different fields, including reliability engineering. In this paper, For both the series and parallel systems composed of three identical or differe...
