A bi-objective simulation-based optimization algorithm for redundancy allocation problem in series-parallel systems
作者：
Highlights：
• A redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with a series-parallel structure is considered.
• Proposing a bi-objective simulation-based optimization algorithm for solving RAP.
• A customized NSGA-II is coupled with the simulation method.
• Each subsystem can be active, cold-standby, mixed, and k- mixed redundancy strategy.
• Statistical analysis is employed to test the performance of optimization methods.
