چکیده

Contracting for availability is expected to become more prevalent for product -service systems (PSS) in the aerospace and defence industries. These contracts tend to transfer responsibilities for the operational phase from the customer to the supplier. In parallel, with operational life spans spanning several decades, the ability to deal with uncertainty in cost estimation for support activities is becoming critical. This paper outlines challenges within this process derived from literature as well as issues that were highlighted during interviews with four major defence and aerospace organisations.

Reliable location-allocation model for congested systems under disruptions using accelerated Benders decomposition

This paper aims to propose a reliable location-allocation model where facilities are subject to the risk of disruptions. Since service facilities are expected to satisfy random and heavy demands, we model the congested situations in the system within a queuing framework which handles two sources of uncertainty associated with demand and service. To insure the service quality, a minimum limit re...
