Reliability Systems with Exponential System Life and IFRA Component Lives.
Abstract
Reliability systems formed with independent IFRA components whose system life is exponential are studied. It is shown that in the case of monotonic systems, the system must be essentially a series system of exponential components; in the case of systems where the life is the sum of the component lives, all but one of the components are degenerate at zero and the remaining one is exponential.
