Abstract

A systematic reliability analysis of n-unit warm standby repairable system with k-repair facility is presented in this paper. Traditional approaches are extended under the following assumptions: (1) the working lifetime, the standby lifetime, and the repair time of failed units are represented as exponential distribution; and (2) the repair of failed units are as good as new after repair. In this paper, a general reliability analysis of an n-unit warm standby repairable system with k-repair facility is presented. Based on previous analysis, the steady-state reliability and the average availability of the system are formulated using the Markov process theory and Laplace transform.
