ABSTRACT

The behaviour and profit analysis of a two unit redundant system in cold/warm/hot stand-by modes with imperfect switch over device is done, introducing the concept of capacity factor/duty-cycle and the fuzziness measure of the state(s). The mean time to system failure, availability and other key parameters of the system are evaluated using the regenerative-point graphical technique, discussed in Section 2.6.
