Abstract: | This paper deals with a single-server two-unit parallel redundant system with non-negligible inspection time. We shall assume that a failure of a unit or the system failure is detected by inspection only. We consider two inspection policies and under each inspection policy the stationary availability is derived by applying Piecewise Markov Process. Optimum inspection schedule is discussed to maximize the stationary availability of the system. A numerical example is presented. |
