Abstract
Abstract A parallel ( 2 , n - 2 ) -system is investigated here where two units start their operation simultaneously and any one of them is replaced instantaneously upon its failure by one of the ( n - 2 ) warm standbys. We assume availability of n non-identical, non-repairable units. The unit-lifetimes in full operational mode and in partial operational mode have general distribution functions G i and H i ( i = 1 , … , n ) respectively. The system reliability is evaluated by recursive relations.
