Performance Improvement of a Parallel Redundant System with Coverage Factor
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a new coverage model which shows improvement in the availability of the system and the reduction in the cost which are important measures for reliability. The present study discusses the effect of coverage factor on the reliability characteristics of a parallel redundant complex system. The system is analysed under Preemptive resume-repair policy. Using the concept of coverage factor, the availability and cost analysis of the system have been computed and analysed by graphical illustrations.

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...
متن کاملRedundancy Allocation Combined with Supplier Selection for Design of Series-parallel Systems
In this paper a redundancy allocation problem is studied where for the first time the supplier selection is taken into consideration and redundant components are provided from appropriate suppliers with the most suitable offers such as discount on buying price of components, warranty length for components, things like that, so that the system reliability, profit and the warranty length proposed...
متن کاملMTBF evaluation for 2-out-of-3 redundant repairable systems with common cause and cascade failures considering fuzzy rates for failures and repair: a case study of a centrifugal water pumping system
In many cases, redundant systems are beset by both independent and dependent failures. Ignoring dependent variables in MTBF evaluation of redundant systems hastens the occurrence of failure, causing it to take place before the expected time, hence decreasing safety and creating irreversible damages. Common cause failure (CCF) and cascading failure are two varieties of dependent failures, both l...

متن کاملCost- Effective Optimum Design of Parallel Redundant System with Common Cause Failures &Fault Coverage
This paper deals with cost – effective optimum design of parallel redundant system. The components in the redundant system are assumed to be identical and failure time follows exponential distribution. This paper suggests optimal spares (S*) required for redundant configuration in parallel redundant system. The results are presented for common cause failures with fault coverage.
