Inventory-transportation integrated optimization for maintenance spare parts of high-speed trains

چکیده
This paper presents a 0-1 programming model aimed at obtaining the optimal inventory policy and transportation mode for maintenance spare parts of high-speed trains. To obtain the model parameters for occasionally-replaced spare parts, a demand estimation method based on the maintenance strategies of China's high-speed railway system is proposed. In addition, we analyse the shortage time using PERT, and then calculate the unit time shortage cost from the viewpoint of train operation revenue. Finally, a real-world case study from Shanghai Depot is conducted to demonstrate our method. Computational results offer an effective and efficient decision support for inventory managers.

Unexpected system failures pose significant problems in power industry and most manufacturing companies. In some cases, a critical component failure can incur catastrophic events and huge economic loss. To maintain machines at high level of reliability, some companies perform time-based preventive maintenance or age-based preventive maintenance to avoid sudden failure of machines. Usually, prev...
متن کاملClosed-loop Supply Chain Inventory-location Problem with Spare Parts in a Multi-Modal Repair Condition
In this paper, a closed-loop location-inventory problem for spare parts is presented. The proposed supply chain network includes two echelons, namely (1) distribution centers (DCs) and repairing centers (RCs) and (2) operational bases. Multiple spare parts are distributed among operational bases from distribution centers in the forward supply chain and failed spare parts from operational bases ...
متن کاملOptimal maintenance and replacement decisions under technological change with consideration of spare parts inventories
Classical spare parts inventory models assume that the same vintage of technology will be utilized throughout the planning horizon. However, replacement often occurs in the form of a new technology. A consequence of such replacements is the rendering of existing spare parts inventories obsolete and the necessity to purchase a new set. This paper aims to study the impact of spare parts inventory...
متن کاملFramework for Spare Inventory Management
Spare parts inventory management is one of the major areas of inventory research. Analysis of recent literature showed that an approach integrating spare parts classification, demand forecasting, and stock control policies is essential; however, adapting this integrated approach is limited. This work presents an integrated framework for spare part inventory management and an Excel based applica...
متن کاملMulti Criteria Classification for Spare Parts Inventory
Maintenance operations directly influence the performances of railway vehicles and play a crucial role in railway services to provide uninterrupted and high quality service to passengers. With the exception of preventive activities, the demand of spare parts for maintenance tasks is usually random; hence, the fast and secure management of the spare parts inventory is an important factor for the...
