Abstract:The reliability of a system having some change points is presented. The technique of calculation is based on a previously developed TFCF procedure for evaluating the reliability for i.i.d. component. It involves the use of some auxiliary functions to set up a set of recursive relations. The resultant equations are solved numerically. An extension to the more general TSCSTFCF procedure and its application to start-up demonstration tests is given. Also, in case of testing, the possibility of carrying out simulta… Show more
