The aim of this work is to present a reliability and profit analysis of a two-dissimilar parallel unit system under the assumption that operative unit cannot fail after post repair inspection and replacement and there is only one repair facility. Failure and repair times of each unit are assumed to be uncorrelated. Using regenerative point technique various reliability characteristics are obtained which are useful to system designers and industrial managers. Graphical behaviors of mean time to system failure (MTSF) and profit function have also been studied. In this paper, some important measures of reliability characteristics of a two non-identical unit standby system model with repair, inspection and post repair are obtained using regenerative point technique.
The main purpose of this research work is to present a reliability analysis of a two dissimilar parallel unit framework under the presumption that a framework's unit may also fail during the preventive maintenance (PM). Only one repair man is available with the system. It has been assumed that he is well capable of doing every repair work including preventive maintenance. Here in this work we have assumed that failure and repair times of each unit are correlated. Utilizing regenerative point strategy different reliability attributes are obtained which are very much helpful to system/ framework designers and company managers. Graphical practices of mean time to system failure and profit/cost function have been studied.
