Redundancy allocation problem of phased-mission system with non-exponential components and mixed redundancy strategy

The redundancy allocation problem (RAP) has been widely studied, which aims to identify the optimal design to achieve the best system indicators, such as system reliability or availability, under certain constraints. This problem has been studied well in the single phased mission systems. But many practical systems, like the manmade satellites or spacecraft, perform a series of tasks in multiple, consecutive, non-overlapping time durations...
