Abstract:

In this paper we describe G/G/R+s multi- repairmen machining system with balking. The system consists of M operating machines, S spare machines, R permanent and s additional repairmen. Assuming the discrete flow of machines by continuous one, the diffusion approximation technique for the machine repair system has developed. The system will be in normal working mode if there is M operating machines. When there are less than M and ≤ m, the system is called as short system. The failure rates of operating units in short and normal modes are different. By using the mean and square coefficient of variation of failure and repair time distributions, the queue size distribution has been established. Various performance indices viz. expected number of failed machines, average operating machines etc. have been derived.

Diffusion Process for GGR Machining System with Spares, Balking and Reneging (RESEARCH NOTE)

This paper deals with the G/G/R machining system consisting of M operating machines as well as S cold standbys. The concepts of balking and reneging are incorporated which make our model more versatile to deal with real time systems. The broken-down machines are sent to repair facilities consisting of R permanent repairmen. The failure times and repair times are generally identical and independ...

Diffusion Process for GX/G/M Queuing System with Balking and Reneging

In the present investigation transient, G x/G/m queuing model with balking and reneging has been studied. The diffusion process with elementary return boundary has been used for modeling purpose. The probability density function (p. d. f.) for the number of customers in the system has been obtained. In special case, the steady state results that tally with those of Kimura and Ohsone have been e...

Transient Analysis of M/M/R Machining System with Mixed Standbys, Switching Failures, Balking, Reneging and Additional Removable Repairmen

The objective of this paper is to study the M/M/R machine repair queueing system with mixed standbys. The life-time and repair time of units are assumed to be exponentially distributed. Failed units are repaired on FCFS basis. The standbys have switching failure probability q (0≤q≤1). The repair facility of the system consists of R permanent as well as r additional removable repairmen. Due to i...

Reliability of Repairable System with Removable Multi-Repairmen

In this investigation, the explicit expressions for reliability function and mean time to failure (MTTF) of a repairable system with provision of spares and removable multi-repair facility have been established. In removable repairmen strategy, the repairmen turn on when there are N or more than N failed units and turn-off when system is empty. The failure times of operating/spare units and rep...

Performance Modeling of Machining System with Mixed Standby Components Balking and Reneging

This paper deals with machine repair problem with balking and reneging. There is provision of mixed standby (warm and cold) components to replace the failed machines. The lifetime and repair time are assumed to have exponential distribution. Birth-death technique is suggested to obtain the queue size distribution in explicit form. A repair facility of C permanent repairmen is facilitated to rep...
