Working Papers
A general Markovian model representing several multiple unit redundant repairable system is proposed and it's transient behaviour is studied. Specifically, for multiple unit reliability system the reliability and availability functions are derived in an explicit form for the transient case. The stationary availability and mean time to system failure are deduced from the main results as special cases.
