Addressing the Evaluation of EDSS-maintenance

چکیده
Daily operation and maintenance tasks are needed to guarantee the correct performance of constructed wetlands. The definition of these activities is a complex task since these actions vary according to the characteristics of each facility. To support the definition of these operation and maintenance protocols an Environmental Decision Support System (EDSS) has been constructed (EDSS-maintenance). The methodology used to develop EDSS-maintenance is based on the following five steps: environmental problem analysis, data and knowledge acquisition, model selection, model implementation and evaluation process. The first four steps have been finished; however, the evaluation process is ongoing. This document presents a new approach for this step: two numerical indices allow (a) verifying the performance of the EDSS-maintenance and (b) validating the compliance of the protocols with the user requirements. Moreover, another index enables an easy revision and improvement of the knowledge bases (problems, causes and actions) and so enhances the decision support system.

متن کاملTechnical Note: An opportunity cost maintenance scheduling framework for a fleet of ships: A case study
The conventional method towards deriving schedule for a fleet of ships to minimize cost alone has the short-coming of not addressing the problem of operation revenue losses associated with delays during maintenance at ships dockyards. In this paper, a preventive maintenance schedule for a fleet of ships that incorporates op-portunity cost is presented. The idea is to assign a penalty cost to al...
متن کاملA Methodology for Knowledge Reuse: Application in the Automatic Generation of Operational Protocols for Wastewater Treatment Plants
During the preliminary stages of many engineering design tasks, the underlying search space is unbounded and inexact. Initial decisions are made when information is incomplete and many goals are contradictory. This sort of problem appeared in Catalonia for the identification of appropriate wastewater treatment systems in small communities, as well as for proposing appropriate operational and ma...
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...
