This paper considers 1-out-of-N: G heterogeneous fault-tolerant systems that are designed
with a mix of hot and cold standby redundancies to achieve the tradeoff between restoration …

Mission abort has recently attracted considerable attention to enhance the safety of critical
systems during the primary mission (PM). Most of the existing research focuses on mission …

In this paper we model and analyze non-repairable 1-out-of-N: G warm standby systems
subject to periodic backups and dynamic reworking. Particularly, in such systems, a standby …

When the missions arrive, it is not feasible to shut down engineering systems for preventive
maintenance policies. Otherwise, it would cause major economic losses and even …

Motivated by practical applications (for example production systems, flow transmission
systems, and transportation systems), this paper considers 1-out-of-N: G warm standby …

This paper studies the selective maintenance problem for a multi-state system (MSS)
performing consecutive production missions with scheduled intermission breaks. To improve …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of the Kijima Type II imperfect
repair model on the availability of repairable systems (RS). Since many individuals are …

The notion of signature has been widely applied for the reliability evaluation of technical
systems that consist of binary components. Multi‐state system modeling is also widely used …

This paper considers the optimal cold standby element sequencing problem (SESP) for 1-
out-of-n: G heterogeneous non-repairable cold-standby systems that accomplish multi …

In many industrial environments, maintenance is performed during successive mission
breaks. In these conditions, it may not be feasible to perform all possible maintenance …
