Reliability Evaluation of Multistate Systems with Multistate Components
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1985This paper presents two efficient algorithms for reliability evaluation of monotone multistate systems with s-independent multistate components. The algorithms are based on the decomposition method of \textit{P. Doulliez} and \textit{J. Jamoulle} [RAIRO, Rech. Oper. 3, 45-60 (1972)].

A BDD-based algorithm for analysis of multistate systems with multistate components
IEEE Transactions on Computers, 2003A new algorithm based on binary decision diagram (BDD) for the analysis of a system with multistate components is proposed. Each state of a multistate component is represented by a boolean variable, and a multistate system is represented by a series of multistate fault trees.

IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1985
Discrete function theory, which extends switching function theory and multiple-valued logic function theory, is introduced into multistate system analysis. Some theoretical conclusions and algorithms which play key roles in multistate system analysis are presented. The concepts of s-coherence and duality in binary-state system analysis are generalized.

Reliability Bounds for Multistate Systems with Multistate Components
Operations Research, 1985The reliability literature has recently introduced several multistate models. This paper discusses reliability bounds in the most general of these models. It presents inclusion-exclusion bounds and compares them with disjoint subset bounds. The later bounds are based on a generalization of Abraham's recursive disjoint products.

Multistability in the corticothalamic system
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2017Neural field theory of the corticothalamic system is used to analyze the properties of its steady-state solutions, including their linear stability, in the parameter space of synaptic couplings for physiological parameter ranges representing normal arousal waking states in adult humans. The independent connections of the corticothalamic model define an

SYNCHRONIZATION OF MULTISTABLE SYSTEMS
International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2008We present the detailed study of synchronization of two unidirectionally coupled identical systems with coexisting chaotic attractors and analyze system dynamics observed on the route from asynchronous behavior to complete synchronization when the coupling strength is increased.

On Multistate Coherent Systems
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1984Recently, several authors have treated multistate systems and given some results. This paper summarizes the several concepts of s-coherency and shows the relationships between them. An interesting theorem for the existence of series and parallel coherent systems is presented.

Controlling Multistability in Chaotic Systems
2010 Complexity in Engineering, 2010We experimentally demonstrate that a suitable opto-electronic feedback perturbation may efficiently control multistability related nonlinear phenomena (“bursting” or crisis-induced intermittency) in a modulated CO2 laser, even in presence of noise (stochastic multistability). We believe these investigations are relevant for their implications in neural

Multistability in the cyclic competition system
Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2018Cyclically competition models have been successful to gain an insight of biodiversity mechanism in ecosystems. There are, however, still limitations to elucidate complex phenomena arising in real competition. In this paper, we report that a multistability occurs in a simple rock-paper-scissor cyclically competition model by assuming that intraspecific ...

Analysis of Coherent Multistate Systems
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1981The structure and reliability of homogeneous s-coherent multistate systems is studied. Homogeneous systems have two properties: 1) their components can be rearranged internally in any arbitrary way without affecting the mapping of the component states onto the system state; 2) all components, all subsystems composed of them, and the system have the ...
