Reliability Measures of a Series System with Weibull Failure Laws
نویسنده
چکیده
The Weibull distribution is widely used in reliability and life data analysis due to its versatility. And, this distribution has been considered as a popular life time distribution which describes modeling phenomena with monotonic failure rates of components. Depending on the values of the parameters it can be used to model a variety of life behaviors. In this paper, reliability measures such as reliability and mean time to system failure (MTSF) of a series system of ‘n’ identical components by considering Weibull failure laws are obtained. The results for these measures are also evaluated for the special case of Weibull distribution i.e. by assuming Rayleigh failure laws. The behavior of MTSF and reliability has been observed graphically for arbitrary values of the parameters related to number of components, failure rates and operating time.

Here, the expressions for reliability and mean time to system failure (MTSF) of a parallel-seriessystem of order (m, n) are derived by considering Weibull distribution for failure time of thecomponents. The results of these measures are also obtained for a particular case of Weibulldistribution i.e. for Rayleigh distribution. The behaviour of reliability and MTSF has beenobserve...

This paper presents a lifetime efficiency index model and a developed crow search algorithm (DCSA) in order to achieve optimal maintenance for the power transformer. Not doing maintenance on the power transformer, resulting in instability of the transmission system and not to supply consistently electric energy in the load points. In other words, deterioration of the transmission system effects...
متن کاملReliability Equivalence Factors of a Series-Parallel System in Weibull Distribution
The performance of a reliability system can be improved by different methods, e.g. the reliability of one or more components can be improved, hot or cold redundant components can be added to the system. Sometimes these measures can be equivalent as they will have the same effect on some performance measure of the system. This paper discusses the reliability equivalences of a series-parallel sys...
