COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF TWO MODIFIED FAST SIMULATION METHODS FOR THE
EVALUATION OF THE FAILURE PROBABILITY OF A RANK STRUCTURE SYSTEM
Abstract. A model of a redundant repairable system of the rank structure is considered.
Its time operation is determined by distributions of general form. Two modified fast simulation methods
for the evaluation of the system failure probability on a fixed time interval are proposed.
The conclusions on the accuracy of these methods depending on the reliability characteristics of the system components are illustrated by a numerical example.
Keywords: reliability, redundant repairable system, rank, simulation with prohibition, importance sampling, estimate, variance.
