Joint Reliability Importance in a Binary k-out-of- n: G System With Exchangeable Dependent Components
(Nctu-national Chiao Tung Univ Press, 2014) Mahmoud, Boushaba; Eryilmaz, Serkan
In this paper, we study joint reliability importance (JRI) in a k -out-of- n : G structure consisting of exchangeable dependent coimponents. We obtain a closed-form formula for the JRI of multiple components of a k -out-of- n : G system with dependent components. We illustrate the results for the k -out-of- n: G model under stress-strength setup. The results extend and generalize the results in the literature from various perspectives including exchangeable type dependence for the JRI of two components.

Linear m-Consecutive-k, l-Out-of-n: F System
(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2012) Eryilmaz, Serkan; Mahmoud, Boushaba
We propose a new model which generalizes the linear m-consecutive-k-out-of-n: F system to the case of the m-consecutive-k-out-of-n: F system with l-overlapping runs. The new system is called the m-consecutive-k,l-out-of-n: F system, and consists of n linearly ordered components such that the system fails iff there are at least m l-overlapping runs of k consecutive failed components. The number of path sets including a specified number of working components is obtained via a combinatorial method, and this quantity is used to obtain the reliability and the signature of the system.
