Abstract

Many engineering systems such as series system, standby redundant system, k-out-of-n system, consecutive k-out-of-n: F system, deterioration system, and repairable system, all of them can be viewed as linearly connected systems. This paper mainly studies the reliabilities and survival times of large linearly connected systems with deterioration-type transition matrices.
