Abstract
This paper deals with the stochastic behaviour of a two-unit warm standby system subject to instantaneous jerks which cause failure and dislocation of the units from their proper place and position. A single installation-cum-repair facility is available, which first installs the unit to its proper place and position and then starts repairing the failed unit immediately after installation. The failure and dislocation rate is taken to be constant whereas the installation and the repair time distributions are taken to be arbitrary. Various reliablity parameters of interest have been derived by using regenerative theory in Markov-renewal processes. A special case has also been discussed.
