Abstract :
Two reliability models for a 2-unit cold-standby intermittently available system, whose units are subject to repair and preventive maintenance, have been studied. In Model I, the Laplace Transform of the pdf of `Disappointment time´ and in Model II, the Laplace Transform of the `Interference time´ are derived. Disappointment time and the interference time definitions include the demand pattern.
