Abstract
This paper presents the availability and MTTF of a system with three states—good, reduced and failed—consisting of three subsystems in series having one standby unit in subsystem D. Failure and repair rates are taken to be constant. Formulation of the problem is carried out using simple probability considerations. Tables for various parameters are given which are useful to management for predictions about the behaviour of various equipment.
