RELIABILITY ANALYSIS OF NETWORKS CONSISTING OF IDENTICAL ELEMENTS

https://doi.org/10.21683/1729-2646-2014-0-1-30-59

Abstract

The paper offers analytical models, which allows obtaining expressions for determining the reliability indices of networks consisting of identical elements. For networks consisting of recoverable elements, the mean time between failures and the mean time to repair in steady-state operation are considered as reliability indices. In assessing the reliability of networks of non-repairable elements, such an index is the mean time to failure.
