Abstract:

Efficient and on-time maintenance plays a crucial role inreducing cost and increasing the market share of an industrial unit. Preventivemaintenance is a broad term that encompasses a set of activitiesaimed at improving the overall reliability and availability of a systembefore machinery breakdown. The previous studies have addressed thescheduling of preventive maintenance. These studies have computed thetime and the type of preventive maintenance by modeling the total costrelated to it. Todays the engineering insurance is an appropriate anddurable protection for reducing the risks related to the industrial machinery.This kind of insurance covers a part of maintenance costs. Previousresearches did not consider the effect of engineering insuranceon maintenance scheduling while it affects the total cost function of maintenance scheduling seriously. Given the above-mentioned remarks,this paper introduces for the first time a new scheduling of preventivemaintenance with considering total cost and total reliability of the systemin which the effect of engineering insurance has been taken intoaccount. Due to the uncertainty in the input parameters, which arevery common in application, the paper proposed the application of robustdesign approaches. To solve this multi objective model, first it hasbeen transformed into a single objective model by using global criterionand the resultant model is solved through genetic algorithm. Theresults show the magnitude effect of engineering insurance on maintenancescheduling. Therefore, neglecting the importance of engineeringinsurance leads to an inefficient scheduling maintenance.

Robust Design of Maintenance Scheduling Considering Engineering Insurance Using Genetic Algorithm

Preventive maintenance is a broad term that encompasses a set of activities aimed at improving the overall reliability and availability of a system. Designers of the preventive maintenance schedules attempt to minimize the overall cost of system operation. There is no substitute for perfection in maintenance to ensure zero breakdowns in machine; therefore it is necessary to get a machinery brea...

MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION OF TIME-COST-SAFETY USING GENETIC ALGORITHM

Safety risk management has a considerable effect on disproportionate injury rate of construction industry, project cost and both labor and public morale. On the other hand time-cost optimization (TCO) may earn a big profit for project stakeholders. This paper has addressed these issues to present a multi-objective optimization model to simultaneously optimize total time, total cost and overall ...

A New Multi-objective Job Shop Scheduling with Setup Times Using a Hybrid Genetic Algorithm

This paper  presents a new multi objective job shop scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times. The objectives are to minimize the makespan and sum of the earliness and tardiness of jobs in a time window. A mixed integer programming model is developed for the given problem that belongs to NP-hard class. In this case, traditional approaches cannot reach to an optimal solution in a reasonable...
