چکیده
In this paper, some recursive equations of reliability for linear consecutivek -out-ofn : F systems with spares d are introduced. The system of consecutive failures with sparse d is a generalized extension of consecutive-k systems, which was proposed by Zhao et al. (2007) in which the reliability formulas of these systems were presented by using finite Markov Chain imbedding approach. To facilitate the use, two theorems and some special cases on recursive equations for the system reliability are given.

Number 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. ...

A maintenance problem of a linear consecutivek-out-of-n: F system with load-sharing dependent components is considered. This system consists of n components which are arranged linearly and fails if k consecutive components fail [1]. This system is commonly found in the integrated circuits, relay stations in telecommunication system, oil pipeline system, vacuum system in accelerators, and spacec...
متن کاملAn Efficient Algorithm for Computing the Reliability of Consecutive-k-Out-Of-n: F Systems
Many algorithms for computing the reliability of linear or circular consecutive-k-out-of-n:F systems appeared in this Transactions. The best complexity estimate obtained for solving this problem is O(k log(n/k)) operations in the case of i.i.d. components. Using fast algorithms for computing a selected term of a linear recurrence with constant coefficients, we provide an algorithm having arithm...
متن کاملOn the Joint Reliability Importance for k-out-of-n Systems
In this paper, the concept of joint reliability importance (JRI) of two or groups of components in a coherent system with independent components have been studied. The JRI is defined as the rate at which the system reliability improves as the reliabilities of the two or groups of components improve. Generally, the sign and the value of the JRI represent the type and the degree of i...
متن کاملAvailability of k-out-of-n: F Secondary Subsystem with General Repair Time Distribution
In this paper we study the steady state availability of main k-out-of-n: F and secondary subsystems having general repair time distribution. When more than k units of main subsystem fail, then the main subsystem shuts off the secondary subsystem. The life time distributions of the main units and that of secondary subsystem are exponentially distributed. A repair facility having single repairman...
