Summary

In this paper, a complex repair system consisting of three types of components with different repair priorities — top, middle and lowest, has been examined. The priorities are assigned keeping in view the essentiality and non-essentiality of a component in system operation. Use of the supplementary variable technique [1, 2, 3] andLaplace Transform [4] has been made to obtain the solution.

Zusammenfassung

Die Arbeit behandelt eine System, das drei Typen von Komponenten besitzt; für diese werden verschiedene Reparaturprioritäten angenommen, abhängig davon, welche Bedeutung die einzelnen Typen für die Arbeit des Gesamtsystems besitzen. Zur Ableitung einer Lösung werden Methoden derLaplace-Transformation herangezogen.
