Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 14Assessment of Shock Models for a Particular Class of Intershock Time Distributions(Springer, 2022) Kus, Coskun; Tuncel, Altan; Eryilmaz, SerkanIn this paper, delta and extreme shock models and a mixed shock model which combines delta-shock and extreme shock models are studied. In particular, the interarrival times between successive shocks are assumed to belong to a class of matrix-exponential distributions which is larger than the class of phase-type distributions. The Laplace -Stieltjes transforms of the systems' lifetimes are obtained in a matrix form. Survival functions of the systems are approximated based on the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. The results are applied for the reliability evaluation of a certain repairable system consisting of two components.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12A New Mixed Δ-Shock Model With a Change in Shock Distribution(Springer, 2023) Chadjiconstantinidis, Stathis; Tuncel, Altan; Eryilmaz, SerkanIn this paper, reliability properties of a system that is subject to a sequence of shocks are investigated under a particular new change point model. According to the model, a change in the distribution of the shock magnitudes occurs upon the occurrence of a shock that is above a certain critical level. The system fails when the time between successive shocks is less than a given threshold, or the magnitude of a single shock is above a critical threshold. The survival function of the system is studied under both cases when the times between shocks follow discrete distribution and when the times between shocks follow continuous distribution. Matrix-based expressions are obtained for matrix-geometric discrete intershock times and for matrix-exponential continuous intershock times, as well.
