Bi-objective optimization of the availability allocation problem in a series–parallel system with repairable components is aimed in this paper. The two objectives of the problem are the availability of the system and the total cost of the system. Regarding the previous studies in series–parallel systems, the main contribution of this study is to expand the redundancy allocation problems to syst...

in this paper, the synchronization of a new hyperchaotic complex system based on t-s fuzzy model is proposed. first the considered hyperchaotic system is represented by t-s fuzzy model equivalently. then by using the parallel distributed compensation (pdc) method and by applying linear system theory and exact linearization (el) technique, a fuzzy controller is designed to realize the synchroniz...

the redundancy allocation problem can be described as selecting the components and system configuration in order to optimize some objective function(s) without violating the system constraints. operating conditions are not constant in many advanced engineering systems. mostly, in the engineering applications selection, the number of redundancy components must be balanced among the constraints (...
