Abstract
In this paper we consider three-state -out-of- system composed of components which lifetimes are modeled by independent and identically distributed discrete random variables. The primary focus is the random vector representing the numbers of components in each state. We derive its joint distribution. For illustration, we provide examples of the systems with components with geometrically distributed lifetimes following the Markov degradation process.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics publishes original papers of high scientific value in all areas of computational and applied mathematics. The main interest of the Journal is in papers that describe and analyze new computational techniques for solving scientific or engineering problems. Also the improved analysis, including the effectiveness and applicability, of existing methods and algorithms is of importance. The computational efficiency (e.g. the convergence, stability, accuracy, ...) should be proved and illustrated by nontrivial numerical examples. Papers describing only variants of existing methods, without adding significant new computational properties are not of interest.
The audience consists of: applied mathematicians, numerical analysts, computational scientists and engineers.
