Fault-tree analysis is a useful analytic tool for the reliability and safety of complex system. However, fault tree is not suitable for repairable system. In this paper, we will propose a new method called TTF (time to failure) and TTM (time to maintenance) to analyze repairable system. Nevertheless, Monte Carlo simulation may be time consuming. In order to reduce simulation time, a parallel algorithm...
In the field of reliability and safety, Fault-tree analysis proved to be a useful analytic tool. Aimed at static or dynamic FTs, Monte Carlo simulation based on time-to-failure (TTF) may be an effective way to calculate FTs. Through computing the TTF of bottom events of FTs, the TTF of the system can be calculated easily. However, Monte Carlo simulation based on TTF is time-consuming because modern...
In this paper, we demonstrate a Monte Carlo simulator for ambipolar Schottky barrier MOSFETs which includes tunneling and thermal emission of electrons and holes and the appropriate treatment of carrier transport at nano-scale. The ambipolar characteristic of SB MOSFETs is reproduced by this simulator. The four operation modes in both n and p SB MOSFETs are revealed. Based on these simulations, it...
