Solution :-
For any given machine, it can have any one of the three states
State Condition
0 Machine works
1 Machine suffered faliure Type I and is being repaired
2 Machine suffered faliure Type II and is being repaired
For long term percentages we need to balance, the inflow and outflow rate for each state.
For state 0, the inflow rate is the sum of the repair rates and the outflow rate is the failure rate.
For State I, the inflow rate is the failure rate and the outflow rate is the repair rate.
The system is in steady state, if all these rate balance.
We have the additional condition,

4. Each time a machine is repaired, it remains up and working for an exponentially distributed time with rate λ. It then fails, and its failure is either of two types. If it is type 1 failure, then the time to repair the machine is exponentially distributed with mean μ1; if it is a type 1 failure, then the time to repair the machine is exponentially distributed with mean μ2. Each failure is, independently of the time it took the...

Each time a machine is repaired, it remains up for an exponentially distributed time with rate ?. It then fails, and its failure is either of two types: - Each failure is, independently of the time it took the machine to fail, a type 1 failure with probability ? and a type 2 failure with probability 1 − ?. - If it is a type ? failure, the time to repair the machine is exponential with rate ?? , ?...

A system is subject to two types of failure. When a failure occurs, it is type 1 with 40% probability The time from when the system is repaired until a new failure occurs exponentially distributed with mean of 30 days. If the failure is type 1, two different components are repaired by two repairmen in exponentially and independently distributed periods each with a mean of 2 days. If the failure is type 2, one component is repaircd by one repairman...

Q3. Commodore 64's computer has three critical parts, each of which is needed for the computer to work. The computer runs continuously as long as the three required parts are working. The three parts have mutually independent exponential lifetimes before they fail. The expected lifetime of parts 1, 2 and 3 are 10 weeks, 20 weeks and 30 weeks, respectively. When a part fails, the computer is shut down and an order is made for a new part of that...

3. Consider a fleet of N airplanes. Each airplane breaks down independently at rate μ, and is then sent to the hangar for repair. The repair facility can only repair one airplane at a time and each airplane takes an exponential time of parameter λ to repair of the number of airplanes in service. (b) when N 2, find the smallest value of λ/μ such that the limit probability that all are in service is greater th an 1/2

Homework Assignment 3.5 Summer 2018 Question 3: Continuous-time Markov Chains (a) A facility has three that are identical. Each machine fails independently with an exponential distribution with a rate of 1 every day; repairs on any machine are also exponentially distributed with a rate of 1 every 12 hours. Create a continuous-time Markov chain to model this (identify the rates, and the transition probabilities) (b) Now, assume the facility above has three machines, but one of them is of Type...

(1) Consider a "two machine two repairman" problem, where each machine independently breaks down at rate μ (that is after an exponential waiting time with parameter μ) (a) If each repairman repairs a machine at rate λ, calculate the long term proportion of time when both machines are broken. [Hint: calculate the stationary probabilities.] You can also consider 4 marks] (b) Assume that repairman Abel works at rate X, and repairman Bernard works at rate Xb. When there is only...

Consider a machine with the exponential reliability model. Assume that the breakdown rate, lamba, is 1 and repair rate, mu, is 2. (a) Calculate the probability that the machine is up for more than 10 units of time. (b) Calculate the probability that the machine is down for less than 3 units of time.

Problem 2 There are three machines and two mechanics in a factory. The break time of each machine is exponentially distributed with A 1 (per day). The repair time of a broken machine is also exponentially distributed with a mean of 3 hours. (Mechanics work separately) (1). Construct the rate diagram for this queueing system. (be careful about the arrival rate A) (2). Set up the rate balance equations, then solve for pn's. (3). Compute L (4). Compute the actual...
