Failure of a system may occur due to certain type of stresses acting on them. If these stresses do not exceed a certain threshold value the system may work for a long period. On the other hand, if the stresses exceed the threshold they may fail within no time. There is uncertainty about stress and strength random variables at any instant of time and also about the behavior of the variables with respect to time and cycles. Time dependent stress- strength models are considered with repeated application of stress and also the change of the strength with time. Reliability of time dependent stress- strength system is carried out by considering stress is random independent and strength is random- fixed . In this paper to find the reliability of finite mixture model where strength follow finite mixture of exponential distribution and stress follows exponential distribution.
