Availability 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 کاملExtended Geometric Processes: Semiparametric Estimation and Application to ReliabilityImperfect repair, Markov renewal equation, replacement policy
Lam (2007) introduces a generalization of renewal processes named Geometric processes, where inter-arrival times are independent and identically distributed up to a multiplicative scale parameter, in a geometric fashion. We here envision a more general scaling, not necessar- ily geometric. The corresponding counting process is named Extended Geometric Process (EGP). Semiparametric estimates are...
متن کاملMarkov Models for Reliability-centered Maintenance Planning
For reliability-centered planning of preventive maintenance a three-stage combined outage and maintenance model of Markov-type is proposed in which each stage of system degradation is characterized by an individual outage and maintenance rate. By this model the restriction of Markov-theory to constant transition rates is overcome. Performing some simplifications the model can be used in reliabi...
متن کاملDynamic reliability degradation based models and maintenance optimization
This paper focuses on the reliability estimation of equipment based on degradation data and on a economic maintenance model that takes into account corrective and preventive replacements as well as inspections costs. We generate the degradation data with a semi-Markov model with 3 states. Each state has a constant degradation rate that contributes to the damage. The degradation paths are simula...
متن کاملMarkov modeling and reliability analysis of urea synthesis system of a fertilizer plant
This paper deals with the Markov modeling and reliability analysis of urea synthesis system of a fertilizer plant. This system was modeled using Markov birth–death process with the assumption that the failure and repair rates of each subsystem follow exponential distribution. The first-order Chapman–Kolmogorov differential equations are developed with the use of mnemonic rule and these equation...
