In recent years, frequent natural or man-made disturbances have been accelerating the
study of resilience management. As an important source of system resilience, maintenance …

Reliability has become a greater concern in recent years, because high-tech industrial
processes with ever increasing levels of sophistication comprise most engineering systems …

Electronic government (e-Government) systems are becoming an essential strategic tool in
the delivery of e-Government-to-Business services (e-G2B). The purpose of this research is …

Accurate remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of critical assets is an important challenge in
condition based maintenance to improve reliability and decrease machine's breakdown and …

Many decision problems have more than one objective that need to be dealt with
simultaneously. Risk, Reliability and Maintenance (RRM) are contexts in which decision …

Disruptive events, whether malevolent attacks, natural disasters, manmade accidents, or
common failures, can have significant widespread impacts when they lead to the failure of …

The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is very attractive in a high-voltage dc (HVdc)
transmission system due to its high modularity and scalability. It is also a promising …

The Poisson binomial distribution is the distribution of the sum of independent and non-
identically distributed random indicators. Each indicator follows a Bernoulli distribution and …

In this work, an optimization technique ie diversity-driven multi-parent evolutionary algorithm
with adaptive non-uniform mutation (DDMPEA-ANUM) has been used to design a digital IIR …

Most books on reliability theory are devoted to traditional binary reliability models allowing
only two possible states for a system and its components: perfect functionality and complete …
