A Condition-based Maintenance Model for Availability Optimization for Stochastic Degrading Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a condition-based maintenance approach for availability optimization problem. The system to be maintained is subject to stochastic degradations and assumed to be continuously monitored. Imperfect preventive maintenance actions are made on the basis of the hybrid hazard model and the condition to perform a preventive maintenance corresponds to a system reliability threshold. After a number of preventive maintenance cycles, the system is replaced by a new one. The maintenance optimization problem to be solved consists on finding the optimal reliability threshold together with the optimal number of preventive maintenance cycles to maximize the average system availability. A mathematical model is proposed and numerically solved. A numerical example is provided for illustration.

A multi-stage stochastic programming for condition-based maintenance with proportional hazards model
Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) optimization using Proportional Hazards Model (PHM) is a kind of maintenance optimization problem in which inspections of a system relevant to its failure rate depending on the age and value of covariates are performed in time intervals. The general approach for constructing a CBM based on PHM for a system is to minimize a long run average cost per unit of time...
متن کاملAvailability analysis of mechanical systems with condition-based maintenance using semi-Markov and evaluation of optimal condition monitoring interval
Maintenance helps to extend equipment life by improving its condition and avoiding catastrophic failures. Appropriate model or mechanism is, thus, needed to quantify system availability vis-a-vis a given maintenance strategy, which will assist in decision-making for optimal utilization of maintenance resources. This paper deals with semi-Markov process (SMP) modeling for steady state availabili...
متن کاملCondition 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...
متن کاملDeveloping a new model for availability optimization applied to a series-parallel system (Quality Engineering Conference Paper)
Redundancy technique is known as a way to enhance the reliability and availability of non-reparable systems, but for repairable systems, another factor is getting prominent called as the number of maintenance resources. In this study, availability optimization of series-parallel systems is modelled by using Markovian process by which the number of maintenance resources is located into the obje...
متن کاملA POMDP Framework to Find Optimal Inspection and Maintenance Policies via Availability and Profit Maximization for Manufacturing Systems
Maintenance can be the factor of either increasing or decreasing system's availability, so it is valuable work to evaluate a maintenance policy from cost and availability point of view, simultaneously and according to decision maker's priorities. This study proposes a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) framework for a partially observable and stochastically deteriorating syste...
