abstract

the redundancy allocation problem can be described as selecting the components and system configuration in order to optimize some objective function(s) without violating the system constraints. operating conditions are not constant in many advanced engineering systems. mostly, in the engineering applications selection, the number of redundancy components must be balanced among the constraints (cost, space, weight etc.) and the improve system reliability. in the presented model, optimum number of redundancy components obtained by considering the working conditions and constraints in the series-parallel systems. in this model, the number of redundancy components establishing by maximizing the reliability of the system in all scenarios. finally, for better understanding, a numerical example is presented.

Redundancy allocation problem for k-out-of-n systems with a choice of redundancy strategies

To increase the reliability of a specific system, using redundant components is a common method which is called redundancy allocation problem (RAP). Some of the RAP studies have focused on k-out-of-n systems. However, all of these studies assumed predetermined active or standby strategies for each subsystem. In this paper, for the first time, we propose a k-out-of-<em...

A redundancy allocation problem with the choice of redundancy strategies by a memetic algorithm

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm based on memetic algorithm (MA) for a redundancy allocation problem without component mixing (RAPCM) in a series-parallel system when the redundancy strategy can be chosen for individual subsystems. Majority of the solution methods for the general RAPCM assume that the type of a redundancy strategy for each subsystem is pre-determined and known a prior...

A New Nonlinear Multi-objective Redundancy Allocation Model with the Choice of Redundancy Strategy Solved by the Compromise Programming Approach

One of the primary concerns in any system design problem is to prepare a highly reliable system with minimum cost. One way to increase the reliability of systems is to use redundancy in different forms such as active or standby. In this paper, a new nonlinear multi- objective integer programming model with the choice of redundancy strategy and component type is developed where standby strategy ...

Reliability Optimization for Complicated Systems with a Choice of Redundancy Strategies (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Redundancy allocation is one of the common techniques to increase the reliability of the bridge systems. Many studies on the general redundancy allocation problems assume that the redundancy strategy for each subsystem is predetermined and fixed. In general, active redundancy has received more attention in the past. However, in real world, a particular system design contains both active and col...

A New Mathematical Model for a Redundancy Allocation Problem with Mixing Components Redundant and Choice of Redundancy Strategies

This paper presents a new mathematical model of a redundancy allocation problem with mixing components redundant in subsystems of a series-parallel system when the redundancy strategy can be chosen for individual subsystems. In practice both active and coldstandby redundancies are used within a particular system design, and the choice of the redundancy strategy becomes an additional decision va...
