Signature of two-dimensional consecutive systems. (English) Zbl 1462.62623
Summary: The paper deals with signature of consecutive-\((m, s)\)-out-of-\((m, n)\):\(F\) system. This system consists of \(mn\) components arranged in \(m\) rows and \(n\) columns. The system fails if and only if all components in any consecutive \(s\) or more columns fail. Reliability of this system is obtained through the signature of the system.
