Reliability analysis of K-out-of-m: G systems with dependent failures†
K. B. MISRAJ‡, E. Balagurusamy · International Journal of Systems Science · 1976
This paper develops reliability models for redundant systems containing units with stress-dependent failure probabilities. The flow of failures is treated as a process of pure death. The effect of degree of dependency on system reliability and mean time to failure (MTTF) is discussed and illustrated in detail.
