Abstract: | In this paper, a maintenance model for two-unit redundant system with one repairman is studied. At the beginning, unit 1 is operating, unit 2 is the standby unit. The costs include the operating reward, repair cost and replacement cost, besides, a penalty cost is incurred if the system breaks down. Two kinds of replacement policy, based on the number of failures for two units and the working age, respectively are used. The long-run average cost per unit time for each kind of replacement policy is derived. Also, a particular model in which the system is deteriorative, two units are identical and the penalty cost rate is high, is thoroughly studied. |
