Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 20On Optimal Age Replacement Policy for a Class of Coherent Systems(Elsevier, 2020) Eryilmaz, Serkan; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Pekalp, Mustafa Hilmi; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Industrial Engineering; Industrial EngineeringAccording to the well-known age replacement policy, the system is replaced preventively at time t or correctively at system failure, whichever occurs first. For a coherent system consisting of components having common failure time distribution which has increasing failure rate, we present necessary conditions for the existence of the unique optimal value which minimizes the mean cost rate. The conditions are mainly based on the signature which only depends on the system's structure. The results are illustrated for linear and circular consecutive type systems. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V.

The performance of such a system is characterized by its total weight/capacity. Therefore, the evaluation of the capacity of the system is of special importance for understanding the behavior of the system over time. This paper is concerned with capacity loss and residual capacity in binary weighted-k-out-of-n:G systems. These measures are potentially useful for the purposes of preventive action. In particular, recursive and non-recursive equations are obtained for the mean capacity loss and mean residual capacity of the binary weighted-k-out-of-n:G system while it is working at a specific time. The mean residual capacity after the failure of the system is also studied. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
