Abstract:
In this paper, decision-making of repairable load-sharing k-out-of-n is discussed. Decision variables are related to system degradation and restoration. By exploiting these decision variables combinations, the optimal design solution is selected by utilizing weighted principal component analysis based multi-response optimization. The mathematical modeling of the decision-making process is based on the statistical flowgraph model. The statistical flowgraph model is used to describe degradation and restoration with the advantage of computation over the traditional Markovian model. Based on the statistical flowgraphs of different factorial decision variables combinations, the reliability-related measurements of load-sharing system can be evaluated, which correspond to the responses in the multi-response optimization problem.
