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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost 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 PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost Analysis of A System with Preventive Maintenance by Using the Kolmogorov’s Forward Equations MethodKhaled Moh. El-SaidThis study deals with cost analysis of a two- unit cold standby redundant system with preventive maintenance.The random failure occurs at random times which follow an exponential distribution and also the repair time are assumed to be exponentially distributed. Using the Kolmogorov’s forward equations method. Several reliability characteristics are obtained. The mean time to system failure (MTSF) and the profit … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,063 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsECONOMIC AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF STOCHASTIC MODEL ON A BASE TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM CONSIDERING VARIOUS OPERATIONAL MODES AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURESRajeev Kumar, Sunny KapoorIn this study a stochastic model for a Base Transceiver System (BTS) is proposed that consists of various hardware and software components. A Base Transceiver System (BTS) may undergoes four modes during its operation viz normal, congestion, down and failure mode. The hardware and software components may have various types of major and minor faults. The occurrence of a minor … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2013 · 7,075 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost Analysis of K-Out of-n Repairable System with Dependent Failure and Stand by Support Using Kolmogorov's Forward Equations MethodM. Y. HaggagProblem statement: Many authors have studied k-out of-n repairable system with dependent failure and standby support. The question was raised whether the repair and standby units support increase the reliability of the system. Determine the efficiency of repair and standby support on the reliability of the system. Approach: In this study the statistical analysis of k-out of-n repairable system with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,598 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost Analysis of Two-Dissimilar-Unit Cold Standby System with three States and Preventive Maintenance Using Linear First Order Differential EquationsM. Y. HaggagProblem statement: Several researchers have studied the reliability behavior of a three state systems, but no attention was paid to the reliability evaluation due to preventive maintenance. The better maintenance of the system originates better reliability. Also, standby support increases the reliability of the system. Approach: Determine the efficacy of preventive maintenance on the reliability and performance of the system. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,873 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of a Smart File Cabinet System With Enhanced Security and Remote AccessAdebayo Afeez Oluwagbenga, Mustapha Favour, Adebiyi Temidayo Daniel et al.In an era increasingly defined by digital interconnectivity, the physical security of sensitive hard-copy documents remains a persistent vulnerability in organizational infrastructure. Traditional filing cabinets, relying on passive mechanical locks, lack the capability for real-time monitoring, remote access control, or active intrusion detection. This research presents the design and validation of a Smart File Cabinet (SFC) system that bridges this … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 May 2026 · 1,696 accessesView PDF Cite
