Abstract: Consider a system which has n independent components (or subsystems) each consisting of m dependent elements. Let , i=1,2,...,n denote the random strength vector of the ith component, where denotes the random strength of the jth element of the ith component. The elements of the components are subjected to a common random stress over time. In this paper, we setup a multivariate stress-strength model based on the conditional ordering between s and and evaluate the reliability of coherent structures in this setup.
