Abstract

The redundancy allocation problem (RAP) is one of the most commonly used approaches for improving the reliability of systems. In previous studies, to simplify the problem model and mathematical solution methods, some real conditions were not emphasized in analysing the issue of RAP. But the present study, while considering these conditions, enables considering multiple goals, analysing repairable systems and examining the failure rate and repair rate appropriate to the type of components. Two goals of this purpose are maximizing the Mean Time To First Failure (MTTFF) and minimizing the total cost of the system, considering the weight and volume limitations and number of plugin components. To solve the problem model four Multi-objective meta-heuristic algorithms have been used: NSGA-II, MOPSO, PESA-II and MALO. In addition, the simulation method is used to estimate the first objective function of the problem.
