Reliability Model of Consecutive $(2, k)$ -Out-of-( $2, n$ ) :F Systems With Local Load-Sharing

IEEE Access, 2018
Most previous reliability models of consecutive k-out-of-n system assume that the components are independent or their reliabilities are equal. The system reliability can be obtained according to the configuration of k consecutive failed components ...

Circulating tumor cells: advancing personalized therapy in small cell lung cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer that spreads rapidly to secondary sites such as the brain and liver. Cancer cells circulating in the blood, “circulating tumor cells” (CTCs), have demonstrated prognostic value in SCLC, and evaluating biomarkers on CTCs could guide treatment decisions such as for PARP inhibitors ...

A Novel Model-Based Dynamic Analysis Method for State Correlation With IMA Fault Recovery

IEEE Access, 2018
Integrated modular avionics (IMA) systems present many advantages. However, the resource sharing mechanism also brings a series of system problems, including the frequency of fault propagation and the difficulties of system design verification.

Functional safety analysis of safety-critical system using state transition diagram

Радіоелектронні і комп'ютерні системи, 2022
The subject of research is to determine the functional safety indicators of a fault-tolerant safety-critical system, namely, the minimal cut sets’ probability for a given duration of the system’s operation, using the state transition diagram (STD).

A comparative study of circulating tumor cell isolation and enumeration technologies in lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Lung cancer cells were spiked into donor blood to evaluate the recovery rates of the following circulating tumor cell (CTC) enrichment technologies: CellMag™, EasySep™, RosetteSep™, Parsortix® PR1, and Parsortix® Prototype systems. Each method's advantages and disadvantages are described.

Mission Reliability-Oriented Selective Maintenance Optimization for Intelligent Multistate Manufacturing Systems With Uncertain Maintenance Quality

IEEE Access, 2019
Selective maintenance is widely used as a reliability-centered maintenance strategy due to the limited maintenance resources. However, existing selective maintenance studies only consider basic reliability, which cannot systematically describe the ...

Reliability approach for fibre-reinforced composites design [PDF]

International Journal for Simulation and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, 2008
This study aims at investigating the mechanical reliability of unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites in view of their design optimization. Owing to the manufacturing process, many uncertainties affect inherently the properties of these materials.

Optimizing the reliability of a bank with Logistic Regression and Particle Swarm Optimization [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
It is well-known that disciplines such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, aerospace engineering, chemical engineering and software engineering witnessed successful applications of reliability engineering concepts. However, the concept of reliability in its strict sense is missing in financial services.

A Benchmark on Reliability of Complex Discrete Systems: Emergency Power Supply of a Nuclear Power Plant [PDF]

EPTCS 244, 2017, pp. 200-216, 2017
This paper contains two parts: the description of a real electrical system, with many redundancies, reconfigurations and repairs, then the description of a reliability model of this system, based on the BDMP (Boolean logic Driven Markov Processes) formalism and partial results of a reliability and availability calculation made from this model.

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.
