Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper considers a repairable system whose periods of operations and repairs alternate during the run time. The residual lifetime of the system and its age, when the system operates at time t , are proposed, and their properties are investigated. Under the condition that the system is under repair, the remaining time until the end of system repair time and the elapsed time of a repair are studied. Since computing a renewal function is not straightforward, we use phase-type approximation to find the best-fitted distribution of corresponding random variables. We provide some examples and utilize a real data set to demonstrate the results.
