Aggregated combinatorial reliability model for non-repairable parallel phased-mission systems

Phased-mission systems (PMSs) are common in many real-world applications. A PMS has to accomplish a mission with multiple phases with varied requirements on system operation and demand. Reliability evaluation of PMSs is more challenging than single-phased systems due to dynamics in system configuration (or structure function) and component behavior, as well as inherent inter-phase dependence. Though many efforts have been dedicated to the PMS...
