A COMPLEX THREE-UNIT PARALLEL SYSTEM WITH PREPARATION TIME FOR REPAIR

<p>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: It is reasonable to expect that preparation time is needed to ready a repair facility before a repair can be carried out. A three-unit system with a `preparation time’ for the repair facility is studied in this paper. The steady-state availability of such a system...
