A note on the component lifetime estimation of a multistate monotone system through the system lifetime
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 July 2016
Abstract
In this paper we consider the observed lifetime of a multistate monotone system and ‘the critical lower set' which causes the system deterioration. Then, under suitable conditions, we identify the component lifetime distribution using a Newton–Kantorovic iterative procedure as in Meilijson (1981).
