Such systems have been used to model telecommunication networks, oil pipeline systems, vacuum systems in accelerators, spacecraft relay stations, etc. In this paper, nonrecursive closed form equations are presented for the reliability functions and mean time to failure values of consecutive k-out-of-n systems consisting of two types of nonidentical components. The results are illustrated for reliability evaluation of oil pipeline system.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessConsecutive k-out-of-n systemsreliability analysismean time to failureoil pipeline systemConsecutive k-out-of-n< Lines With a Change PointArticleQ3Q22306545550WOS:0003931849000029
