摘要：For the reliability modeling of multistate single-component system, single maintenance bench provides the preventive maintenance and alternative maintenance services on the basis of system performance level following the stochastic detection strategy. Phase-type distribution is employed in place of exponential distribution and other typical distributions to describe the stochastic time variable in the reliability modeling process in a unified manner. Through matrix analysis, the analytic expressions for reliability indicators including system steady-state availability, mean time between failures (MTBF) and failure rate of system are obtained. A numerical application is presented to verify the applicability of the model and demonstrate the influence of preventive maintenance threshold and preventive maintenance rate on system reliability.
