Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment of Priority Oriented Scheduling Method to Increase the Reliability of Manufacturing SystemsSeyedehfarzaneh Nojabaei, Z. Leman, S. H. Tang, S. SulaimanScheduling occurs in every organization without considering the nature of its activities. In this regard, numerous scholars have attempted to schedule via divergent methods including classical scheduling, genetic algorithm, neural network and fuzzy logic and so on. Studies in manufacturing scheduling mostly deal with priority rules without any consideration of the system states. An appropriate scheduling leads to significant enhancement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCompare Between Two-Unit Cold Standby and Warm Standby Outdoor Electric Power Systems in Changing WeatherG. S. Mokaddis, M. Salah EL-Sherbeny, Entesar Al-EsayehProblem statement: This study presents the reliability analysis of two mathematical models representing electric power systems operating in fluctuating outdoor weather (i.e., normal and stormy weather) and compared between two models. Approach: Model I deals the reliability analysis of a single-server two-unit cold standby, Model II deals the reliability analysis of a single-server two-unit warm standby, for two systems with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStochastic Behavior of Redundant Complex System with Two Types of FailureG. S. Mokaddis, M. Salah EL-Sherbeny, Entesar Al-EsayehProblem statement: This study presented the reliability and Mean Time To System Failure (MTTF) analysis of a two-state complex with repairable system, consisting of two sub-systems A and B arranged in series, incorporating the concept of hardware and human failures. The failure times of operating units and repair time of failed units were exponential distributed. Approach: Markov-renewal processes and properties … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFuzzy Reliability and Fuzzy Availability of the Serial Process in Butter-Oil Processing PlantKuldeep Kumar, Jai Singh, Pawan KumarProblem statement: The purpose of this study was to compute fuzzy reliability and fuzzy availability of the serial process in butter-oil processing plant for various choices of failure and repair rates of sub-system. This plant consists of eight sub-systems out of which two are supported by stand-by units with perfect switch over devices and considered that these two sub-systems never … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFailure Probability of 2-within-Consecutive-(2, 2)-out-of-(n, m): F System for Special Values of mE. M.E.L. SayedProblem statements: In this research, the researcher aimed to discuses the system failure probability of the model 2-within-consecutive (2, 2) out of (n, m) system for special values of m. Approach: The basic idea for evaluating the failure probability was the usage of the number of configuration of k (k = 2, 3, 4) parallel columns each contained n components … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesigning for Comfort and Reliability in an Intelligent Car SeatD.A. Wahab, N.F. Adull Manan, M.A. Hannan et al.Today, intelligent safety systems are installed in modern cars in view of minimising road hazards. An intelligent air bag system for example, comprised several subsystems that are integrated to include the weight sensor system, image sensor system, crash sensor system and tyre pressure monitoring system. These systems when poorly positioned into the car seat, will certainly affect comfort and reliability … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost Elasticities of Reliability and MTTF for k-out-of-n SystemsAli Muhammad Rushdi, Abdulaziz Efain AlsulamiThe application of the concept of cost elasticity of reliability was extended from the parallel system to the partially redundant or k-out-of-n:G(F) system (or k-out-of-n system, for short). An expression for the cost elasticity of reliability was derived for a general k-out-of-n system. The expression yielded acceptable results for a wide range of values for k, n, and component reliability. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of Reliability and Availability Characteristics of Two Different Systems by Using Linear First Order Differential EquationsKhaled M. El-Said, Mohamed S. EL-SherbenyThis study deals with the reliability and availability characteristics of two different series system configurations. The second system differs from the first system due to the additional feature of preventive maintenance. The failure times of a components are assumed to be exponentially distributed with parameters α,β,α' and β', respectively. The replacement time distribution of each server is also exponentially distributed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCut-Set Based Method to Determine the Maximum Demand Accommodated by a Multi-State NetworkMoatamad Hassan, Hani AbdouThe reliability of a multi-state network is defined as the probability that the network can successfully send d (demand) units of data from the source to the sink. To predict the value of maximum demand (dmax) that could be accommodated by a network, a cut-set based approach is presented in this study. The presented approach is simple and easy to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEstimation and Reliability for a Special Type of Semi-Markov ProcessVlad Stefan Barbu, Alex Karagrigoriou, Andreas MakridesThis work deals with multi-state systems modelled by means of semi-Markov processes. The sojourn times are seen to be independent not identically distributed random variables and assumed to belong to one of two different general classes of distributions so that the first class is closed under maxima and the second one is closed under minima. We obtain maximum likelihood estimators … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2019 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
