Condition Based Maintenance for Two-Component Systems with Reliability and Cost Considerations

This paper studies a maintenance policy for a system composed of two components, which are subject to continuous deterioration and consequently stochastic failure. The failure of each component results in the failure of the system. The components are inspected periodically and their deterioration degrees are monitored. The components can be maintained using different maintenance actions (repair...

Optimizing the preventive maintenance scheduling by genetic algorithm based on cost and reliability in National Iranian Drilling Company

Robelin and Madanat 1 Network - Level Reliability - Based Bridge Inspection , Maintenance and Replacement Optimization Model

This paper presents a reliability-based optimization model of inspection, maintenance, and replacement for a system of several highway bridges. The objective in the formulation is to minimize the total expected social cost, including the expected cost of failure. The frequency of inspections is included as a decision variable. The probability of failure is explicitly taken into account in the c...
