On Mean Residual Life of Discrete Time Multi-State Systems
(Nctu-national Chiao Tung Univ Press, 2013) Eryilmaz, Serkan
The mean residual life function is an important characteristic in reliability and survival analysis. Although many papers have studied the mean residual life of binary systems, the study of this characteristic for multi-state systems is new. In this paper, we study mean residual life of discrete time multi-state systems that have M + 1 states of working efficiency. In particular, we consider two different definitions of mean residual life function and evaluate them assuming that the degradation in multi-state system follows a Markov process.

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.
