Stress–strength reliability analysis of multi-state system based on generalized survival signature

作者：

Highlights：

•

• The definitions of the generalized survival signature (GSS) are given.

• We study the stress–strength reliability (SSR) of multi-state system based on GSS.

• The multi-state system in both discrete and continuous cases are considered.

• Classical and Bayesian statistical theories are used to estimate the SSR.
