Sumario:A novel constraints model of credibility-fuzzy for the reliability redundancy allocation problem (RRAP) is studied in this work. The RRAP that must simultaneously decide reliability and redundancy of components is an effective approach in improving the system reliability. In practice various systems, the uncertainty condition of components used in the systems, which few studies have noticed this state over the years, is a concrete fact due to several reasons such as production conditions, different batches of raw materials, time reasons, and climatic factors. Therefore, this study adopts the fuzzy theory and credibility theory to solve the components uncertainty in the constraints of RRAP including cost, weight, and volume. Moreover, the simplified swarm optimization (SSO) algorithm has been adopted to solve the fuzzy constraints of RRAP. The effectiveness and performance of SSO algorithm have been experimented by four famous benchmarks of RRAP.
