Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3On the Mean Number of Remaining Components in Three-State k-out-of-n< System(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015) Eryilmaz, Serkan; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Industrial Engineering; Industrial EngineeringA three-state k-out-of-n system with n independent components is considered, where the vector k of integers is determined by given fixed scalars k(1) and k(2) such that k(1), k(2) <= n. The mean number of components of each type either in a perfect functioning state or in a partially working state at the time of the system failure and at a time while the system is working are studied. An optimization problem concerned with the most economical value of n is also formulated. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.

It is assumed that the components and the systems can be in three states: perfect functioning, partial performance and complete failure. Using the concept of permanent, we study marginal and joint survival functions for the lifetime of two different three-state k-out-of-n:G systems that consist of independent and nonidentical components. Illustrative examples are also provided for the components which follow the Markov degradation process. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
