This paper is aimed to study the standby redundant system with the relay of parallel structure, by making use of the character of standby system, which reliability is higher than parallel system's if the relay has higher reliability than a certain level. By assigning the low-priced relay to the subsystem, this method increases the relay reliability, optimizes the standby redundant system reliability without violating the restrictions, and consequently reduces the cost.

중복시스템의 일반적인 구조는 기능을 수행하는 주요부품과 주요부품이 고장 나는 경우에 그 기능을 대신 수행하는 대기부품으로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 하나의 대기부품이 여러 개의 주요부품의 기능을 동시에 대신 수행할 수 있는 다기능 대기부품을 갖는 병렬시스템을 고려한다. 이 시스템을 구성하고 있는 모든 부품들은 작동상태와 고장상태만 갖는 반면 시스템은 구성 부품들의 상태에 따라 다중 상태를 갖는 것을 가정한다. 이러한 중복구조는 항공기와 같이 시스템의 중량이 중요한 요소인 시스템에서 많이 채택되고 있는 구조이다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 중복시스템의 신뢰도를 평가하기 위한 새로운 신뢰도모델링 기법을 제안하고 부품들이 상수고장률을 갖는 경우 마코프 분석 방법을 적용하여 시스템의 신뢰도를 구한다. 또한 본 연구에서 고려하고 있는 시스템과 기존에 이미 알려진 병렬시스템과 중복구조를 갖는 병렬시스템의 신뢰도를 비교하여 다기능 대기부품의 효과를 분석한다.

In this paper, we consider the warm standby redundant system(WSRS) which is consisted of an active unit, a standby unit and a switchover device. In addition, the switchover processing is controlled by a control module. The effect of failure of the control module is taken into account to develop our reliability model for the redundant structure. For the performance evaluation of a redundant system with the function of switchover processing which is assumed to cause the increase of the failure rate of the system, some reliability indices, such as availability, average availability, reliability and steady state availability, are considered.

In this paper, we consider the simple redundant structures with the function of hardware based active/standby control. The system includes two switch modules. The switch module is connected to a data bus, but only the active switch module has control of the data bus. The standby unit takes over the function of the active unit when the active unit failure or mode command are asserted. And this paper illustrate the high-speed router system and the overall redundant system architecture. The proposed redundant architecture for 80G Router system is verified and implemented with experiment.

There are various notions of partial ordering between life-times of systems; stochastic ordering failure rate ordering and likeli-hood ration ordering. In this paper we show that for series systems with non i.i.d. exponential lifetimes of components standby redundancy at component level is better than that at system level in failure rate or-dering and likelihood ratio ordering. We also demonstrate that for 2-component parallel systems with i.i.d. exponential lifetimes of com-ponents standby system redundancy is better than standby component redundancy in failure rate ordering and likelihood ratio ordering.

This paper considers some reliability indices, such as availability, average availability, reliability and steady state availability, of a redundant system with the function of switchover processing. We also derive the confidence limits for steady state availability of such system. The system, which is considered in this paper, consists of an active unit, a standby unit and a switchover device. In addition, the switchover processing is controlled by a control module. The effect of failure of the control module is taken into account to develop our reliability model for the redundant structure. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate our results.

철도시스템의 고장은 운행지연 또는 철도사고의 원인이 될 수 있으며, 철도안전을 확보하기 위하여 높은 신뢰성이 요구된다. 철도시스템은 신뢰도 및 가용도를 높이기 위하여 동일 시스템을 다중으로 구성하여 동작 중인 시스템에 고장이 발생한 경우에 대기 시스템이 정상 동작을 수행하도록 설계한다. 일반적으로 시스템의 신뢰도는 시스템을 구성하는 각 요소의 신뢰도를 사용하여 분석하며, 시스템간의 물리적, 기능적, 프로세스적 독립이 보장되지 않는 다중 시스템의 경우는 다중 시스템에 동시에 고장을 유발하는 공통원인고장을 고려하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 철도 시스템에서 사용되고 있는 대기 이중계 시스템에 대하여 각 시스템이 독립일 경우와 공통원인고장을 고려한 종속일 경우에 대한 신뢰도를 분석하였다. 신뢰도 분석을 위하여 다중계 구조의 다양성과 시스템 상태 전이별로 모델링이 가능한 마코브 모델을 사용하였으며, 공통고장모드의 분석 유무의 차이점 평가를 통해 시스템 신뢰도평가의 정확도 향상 방안을 제시한다.

A device is said to have three states if it has one good state and two mutually exclusive failure modes ; e. g., in one failure mode, it operates when it should not, in the other it doesn't operate when it Should. Some examples of such device include a fluid flow valve, an automatic machine, and an explosive. A Markov model is developed to obtain the availability Function of a 2-unit standby redundant system of such devices.

In the development of an underwater construction robot, the reliability of the operating system is the most important issue because of its huge maintenance cost, especially in a deep sea application. In this paper, we propose a new redundant architectural design for the hydraulic control system of an underwater construction robot. The proposed architecture consists of dual independent modular redundancy management systems linked with a commercial profibus network. A cold standby redundancy management system consisting of a preprocessing switch circuit is applied to the signal network, and a hot standby redundancy management system is adapted to utilize two main controllers.

In different industrial and mission oriented applications, redundant or standby semiconductor systems can be implemented to improve the reliability of power electronics equipment. The proper structure for implementation can be one of the redundant or standby structures for series or parallel switches. This selection is determined according to the type and failure rate of the fault. In this paper, the reliability and the mean time to failure (MTTF) for each of the series and parallel configurations in two redundant and standby structures of semiconductor switches have been studied based on different failure rates. The Markov model is used for reliability and MTTF equation acquisitions. According to the different values for the reliability of the series and parallel structures during SC and OC faults, a comprehensive comparison between each of the series and parallel structures for different failure rates will be made. According to the type of fault and the structure of the switches, the reliability of the switches in the redundant structure is higher than that in the other structures. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed series and parallel structures of switches during SC and OC faults, results in an improvement in the reliability of the boost dc/dc converter. These studies aid in choosing a configuration to improve the reliability of power electronics equipment depending on the specifications of the implemented devices.
