Abstract:

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 repair time of failed units are exponentially distributed.

Reliability Analysis of Redundant Repairable System with Degraded Failure

This investigation deals with the transient analysis of the machine repair system consisting of M-operating units operating under the care of single repairman. To improve the system reliability/availability, Y warm standby and S cold standby units are provided to replace the failed units. In case when all spares are being used, the failure of units occurs in degraded fashion. In such situation ...

Reliability of Repairable Multicomponent Redundant System

This investigation deals with transient analysis of cold standby system with n units . Chapman-Kolmogorov equations are developed for repair facility with two repairmen and solved by using matrix technique. Availability and reliability factors have been obtained with probability of the system. A particular case has also been discussed.

Analysis of the Reliability of a Three-Component System with Two Repairmen

In this paper authors have considered a system having three units A, B1 and B2. A is controlled by a controller and B1 and B2 are independent. Two repairmen are involved in repair of the system. One of the repairmen (the first) is the foreman (boss) and the other an assistant (apprentice). Whenever any unit fails, repair is undertaken by boss. If the boss is busy in repairing and at the same ti...

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...

Fuzzy Reliability Evaluation of a Repairable System with Imperfect Coverage, Reboot and Common-cause Shock Failure

In the present investigation, we deal with the reliability characteristics of a repairable system consisting of two independent operating units, by incorporating the coverage factor. The probability of the successful detection, location and recovery from a failure is known as the coverage probability. The reboot delay and common cause shock failure are also considered. The times to failure of t...
