Estimation of Parameters in a Generalized Exponential Semi-Markov Reliability Models

Estimation of Parameters in a Generalized Exponential Semi-Markov Reliability Models

This paper deals with the stochastic analysis of a three-states semi-Markov reliability model. Using both the maximum likelihood and Bayes procedures, the parameters included in this model are estimated. Next, assuming that the lifetime and repair time are generalized exponential random variables, the reliability function of this system is obtained. Then, the distribution of the first passage time of this system is discussed. Finally, some of the obtained results are compared with those available in the literature.
