Abstract
Universal Generating Functions and Lz transformations have been widely used in the reliability modeling of multi-state systems. In order to solve the problem of complex calculations due to the dense random combination of multi-state performance parameters in the Lz transformation, a screening function is defined before the Lz transformation, and the screening function is combined with the performance threshold to screening the state performance parameters in advance, and the process is simplified through the screen matrix and the screen block diagram, effectively reduce the combined dimensions and quantity, improve the efficiency of reliability analysis, and combine with specific examples for application verification.
