    (G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar - 263145 (Uttarakhand), 2017-07) Akshay Kumar; Singh, S.B.
    The present research study is based on the development of reliability models with the help of UGF and fuzzy sets. In this study, eight different reliability models have been developed. Model-1 studies the reliability characteristic of sliding window coherent system which consists of n number of components connected in parallel configuration using UGF. Model-2 discusses the signature reliability of complex and k-out-of-n coherent system with the help of reliability functions. Model-3 focuses on reliability metrics of a sliding window coherent system in case of multiple failures. Model-4 deals with a linear multi-state sliding window coherent system which generalizes the consecutive k-out-of-r-from-n:F system in multi-state case. All the aforesaid models evaluated the signature, MTTF, Barlow-Proschan index and expected cost etc. Model-5 studies the reliability of two states consecutive sliding window system consisting of generalized linear multi-state sliding window system having m consecutive independent and identically distributed components. Model-6 introduces and studies the intervalvalued reliability of to 2-out-of-4 system with the help of reliability function using UGF. The considered system consists of 2 numbers of components connected in series. Model7 investigates the intuitionistic fuzzy reliability measure of a linear (circular) consecutive k-out-of-n:F system of non-identical elements with the Weibull lifetime distribution and Markov process. Model-8 deals with series, parallel and consecutive k-out-of-n: F systems, using triangular hesitant fuzzy number and Weibull distribution.
