Multi-state System Reliability Analysis and Optimization for Engineers and Industrial Managers presents a comprehensive, up-to-date description of multi-state system (MSS) reliability as a natural extension of classical binary-state reliability. It presents all essential theoretical achievements in the field, but is also practically oriented. New theoretical issues are described, including: - combined Markov and semi-Markov processes methods, and universal generating function techniques; - statistical data processing for MSSs; - reliability analysis of aging MSSs; - methods for...
