This article presents an algorithm for optimal redundancy and repair team allocation with respect to minimum system cost and a system availability constraint. Four scenarios are considered for the failures occurring in the subsystems of the system: independence, linear dependence, weak dependence, and strong dependence. An adaptive cuckoo optimization algorithm is developed for solving the nonlinear integer optimization problem of allocation. A series–parallel system with six subsystems is considered as a case study for demonstration purposes. The results obtained highlight the good performance of the developed algorithm.

Abstract
This article presents an algorithm for optimal redundancy and repair team allocation with respect to minimum system cost and a system availability constraint. Four scenarios are considered for the failures occurring in the subsystems of the system: independence, linear dependence, weak dependence, and strong dependence. An adaptive cuckoo optimization algorithm is developed for solving the nonlinear integer optimization problem of allocation. A series–parallel system with six subsystems is considered as a case study for demonstration purposes. The results obtained highlight the good performance of the developed algorithm.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
