Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCost Analysis of a System Involving Common-Cause Failures and Preventive MaintenanceM.Y. HaggagProblem statement: Many authors have studied the cost analysis of a two-unit cold standby redundant system with two types of unit failure, but no attention was paid to the reliability of a system involving common-cause failures and preventive maintenance. Question was raised whether the preventive maintenance would be effective on the reliability and performance of the system. Determine the efficacy … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleReliability Evaluation of Distributed Computer Systems Subject to Imperfect Coverage and Dependent Common-Cause FailuresLiudong Xing, Akhilesh ShresthaImperfect coverage (IPC) occurs when a malicious component failure causes extensive damage due to inadequate fault detection, fault location or fault recovery. Common-cause failures (CCF) are multiple dependent component failures within a system due to a shared root cause. Both imperfect coverage and common-cause failures can exist in distributed computer systems and can contribute significantly to the overall system unreliability. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 28 Sep 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSystem Availability in the Presence of Estimating Common-cause Time-varying Failure RatesM. A. El-Damcese, Kh. A. Abd AlttifThis study presents a method for calculating the availability of a system depicted by availability block diagram, with identically distributed components, in the presence of estimating common cause hazard, we use the Marshall and Olkin formulation of the multivariate exponential distribution. That is, the components are subject to failure by Poisson failure processes that govern simultaneous failure of a specific … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite
