Decision Supporting Model for Highway Maintenance
نویسندگان
چکیده
A decision model for pavement management has been developed herein based on linear programming formulation. Markov transition probability matrices are introduced to model the deterioration process of the road sections. To every type of road surfaces and class of traffic amount belongs a certain Markov matrix. The presented model and methodology is used to determine the optimal rehabilitation and maintenance policy in network level. Depending on the objective function two types of problems could be solved by the model : the necessary funds calculation and the optimal budget allocation for the entire network. We have developed the computer program on microcomputer and it has been used by the Ministry of Transport who is responsible for the 30000 km road network of Hungary.

Building a maintenance policy through a multi-criterion decision-making model
A major competitive advantage of production and service systems is establishing a proper maintenance policy. Therefore, maintenance managers should make maintenance decisions that best fit their systems. Multi-criterion decision-making methods can take into account a number of aspects associated with the competitiveness factors of a system. This paper presents a multi-criterio...
متن کاملMaintenance management decision model for preventive maintenance strategy on production equipment
In industries, Preventive Maintenance (PM) is not a new practice to minimise the sudden breakdown of production machine. PM will be performed at predetermine intervals to provide a balance between failure cost and component utilisation (aging). However, most of PM interval is based on experience or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommendations. Consequently, the benefits from PM are not...

Mature infrastructures require proper maintenance treatments. Highway agencies often face with limited maintenance budget which may result a large backlogs of maintenance works in each year. The main objective of this research work is to develop a multi-objective optimization model to support the multi-year decision making process of the highway maintenance management in Thailand. Preventive ma...
