Sm. Wu et al., RELIABILITY-ANALYSIS OF A REPAIRABLE SYSTEM WITHOUT BEING REPAIRED ASGOOD AS NEW, Microelectronics and reliability, 34(2), 1994, pp. 357-360
This paper considers a repairable system which is a two-unit priority
standby redundant system. If units fail, they cannot be repaired to be
''as good as new''. Under this assumption, by using a geometric proce
ss and the method of a supplementary variable, some reliability indice
s are derived.
