The characteristic of dependence widely exists among different failure modes of systems,
which brings extra difficulty for the reliability analysis. In this paper, a nonparametric …

In general, simple subsystems like series or parallel are integrated to produce a complex
hybrid system. The reliability of a system is determined by the reliability of its constituent …

Under Type-II progressively hybrid censoring, this paper discusses statistical inference and
optimal design on step-stress partially accelerated life test for hybrid system in presence of …

In this article, the statistical inference of a hybrid system with incomplete observed data is
studied based on the adaptive type‐II progressive hybrid censored samples. It is assumed …

In this paper, we investigate a step-stress partially accelerated lifetime test for the four-
component hybrid systems with Type-II progressive hybrid censoring scheme while the life …

This article considers the reliability analysis of a hybrid system with dependent components,
which are linked by a copula function. Based on Type I progressive hybrid censored and …

In this paper, we investigate parameter inference for four-unit hybrid systems based on Type-
II progressively hybrid censored and masked data from constant-stress partially accelerated …

Background: Reliability analysis for the systems with masked data had been studied by
many scholars. However, most researches focused on a system that is either series or …

The research studied and analyzed the hybrid parallel-series systems of asymmetrical
components by applying different experiments of simulations used to estimate the reliability …

First, I am very grateful to Professor Erhard Cramer for giving me the opportunity to write this
thesis. Thank you for very helpful ideas, discussions, comments and a positive atmosphere …
