Simplification of State Transition Diagrams in Average Unavailability Analysis by Using Generalized Perturbation Theory
Safety analysis studies in nuclear engineering, more specifically system reliability, usually handle a great number of components, so that computational difficulties may arise. To face the problem of many component systems a method for simplifying the state transition diagram in Markovian reliabilit...
