Reliability of a system with cold redundancy and repaired failures: Series scheme analysis

  • Published:
Cybernetics and Systems Analysis Aims and scope

Abstract

We consider a system which consists of one operating element and cold redundant elements of the same type. System failures are partially eliminated by repair and partially by replacement of the faulty element with a normally operating standby element (if no such element is available, the system fails). A comprehensive analysis of system failure probability is performed.
