Reliability Modeling of a Manufacturing Cell Operated under Degraded Mode
نویسنده
چکیده
In this study, a stochastic model is developed to analyze performance measures of a manufacturing cell, which is allowed to operate under degraded mode. The model is used to determine reliability and productivity of the cell, as well as the utilization of its components, under various operational conditions, including equipment failures and fault-tolerant states. The model and the results can be useful for design engineers and operational managers to analyze performance of a system at the design or operational stage.

متن کاملMulti-State Reliability Modeling of A Manufacturing Cell
A Manufacturing cell consists of a machine served by a loading and unloading robot and a pallet handling system, which moves a batch of parts into and out of the system. In this study, a stochastic model is developed to analyze performance measures of a cell, which is allowed to operate under multi-states including degraded mode. The model is used to determine state probabilities of the system,...
متن کاملStochastic Modeling of a Multi-state Manufacturing System under Three Types of Failures with Perfect Fault Coverage
In this paper an analytical approach for the reliability evaluation of complex manufacturing system is presented, where a manufacturing system is in operative state only if its production capacity requirements are satisfied. We considered a manufacturing system with three types of failures namely type I, type II and type III failures. The proposed system works in four modes: normal, degraded, d...
متن کاملEffect of batch vs. continuous mode of operation on microbial desalination cell performance treating municipal wastewater
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) have great potential as a cost-effective and green technology for simultaneous water desalination, organic matter removal and energy production. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of a MDC under batch and continuous feeding conditions. Hence, power and current output, coulombic efficiency, electron harvest rate, desalination rate and COD re...
متن کاملReliability Analysis of Redundant Repairable System with Degraded Failure
This investigation deals with the transient analysis of the machine repair system consisting of M-operating units operating under the care of single repairman. To improve the system reliability/availability, Y warm standby and S cold standby units are provided to replace the failed units. In case when all spares are being used, the failure of units occurs in degraded fashion. In such situation ...
