Time-varying reliability indexes for multi-AUV cooperative system

Journal of Systems Engineering and Electronics, 2017
With the development of multi-autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) cooperative systems, the evaluation of their reliability is becoming more and more important. Since AUVs are always in motion, the reliability of the system is not stationary, but it varies with time.
