Abstract
Bu makalede, bileşenlerin arıza ve onarım sürelerinin geometrik dağılıma uyduğu varsayımı altında tamir edilebilir ardıl n-den-k-çıkışlı:F sistemi incelenmiştir. Sisteminin güvenilirlik ve kullanılabilirlik özellikleri, kararlı durum olasılıkları yerine geçiş durum olasılıkları değerlendirilerek elde edilmiştir. Ayrıca, bileşenlerin onarımında öncelikli onarım kuralı uygulanmıştır. Teorik sonuçların elde edilmesi ve teorik olarak elde edilen sonuçların karşılaştırılması aşamasında bir simülasyon çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sisteme dair çıkarımlarda bulunmak amacı ile çeşitli sayısal sonuçlar elde edilmiş ve bu sonuçlar tablo ve şekillerle sunulmuştur.

Abstract
In this paper, we study a repairable consecutive-k-out-of-n:F system under the assumption that the failure and repair times of the components follow a geometric distribution. The reliability and availability characteristics of the system are obtained by evaluating transition state probabilities instead of steady state probabilities. Furthermore, the priority repair rule is applied to repair the components. A simulation study was carried out to compare the theoretical results. In order to make inferences about the system, various numerical results are obtained and these results are presented in tables and figures.
