Abstract:
Stochastic ordering problems in weighted-k-out-of-n systems are considered. The influence of component lifetimes and weights on the total capacity is studied. When it is allowed to allocate lifetimes to the weights, an optimal allocation to attain maximum total capacity is obtained.
Keywords: Convolution of independent random variables; Hazard rate order; Increasing failure rate; Mean residual life order and usual stochastic order (search for similar items in EconPapers)
