Dispersive Ordering and k-out-of-n Systems
Extended Abstract. The simplest and the most common way of comparing two random variables is through their means and variances. It may happen that in some cases the median of X is larger than that of Y, while the mean of X is smaller than the mean of Y. However, this confusion will not arise if the random variables are stochastically ordered. Similarly, the same may happen if one would like to ...
متن کاملNumber of Minimal Path Sets in a Consecutive-k-out-of-n: F System
In this paper the combinatorial problem of determining the number of minimal path sets of a consecutive-k-out-of-n: F system is considered. For the cases where k = 2, 3 the explicit formulae are given and for k ≥ 4 a recursive relation is obtained. Direct computation for determining the number of minimal path sets of a consecutive-k-out-of-n: F system for k ≥ 4 remains a difficult task. ...
متن کاملMEAN RESIDUAL LIFETIMES OF CONSECUTIVE-k-OUT-OF-n SYSTEMS
In this paper we study reliability properties of consecutive-k-out-of-n systems with exchangeable components. For 2k ≥ n, we show that the reliability functions of these systems can be written as negative mixtures (i.e. mixtures with some negative weights) of two series (or parallel) systems. Some monotonicity and asymptotic properties for the mean residual lifetime function are obtained and so...
متن کاملConsecutive expansions of k-out-of-n systems
We introduce consecutive expansions of k–out–of–n systems, which have the property that components are totally ordered by the node criticality relation and with respect to well-known structural importance measures. We propose some formulae to easily compute these measures and study the hierarchies induced for them for large systems.
متن کاملCONSECUTIVE k-OUT-OF-n SYSTEMS WITH MAINTENANCE
Abs t r a c t . A consecutive k-out-of-n system consists of n linearly or cyclically ordered components such that the system fails if and only if at least k consecutive components fail. In this paper we consider a maintained system where each component is repaired independently of the others according to an exponential distribution. Assuming general lifetime distributions for system's component...
