In this study, an optimization model for road maintenance scheduling is proposed. The proposed determines a schedule given set of links in urban network, that minimizes the total travel time during period under assumptions and particular crew number constraint. It assumed all lanes to be repaired are closed traffic maintenance. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), suitable algorithm discrete transpor...

Engineers design systems to be reliable and work fulfil their missions without failure for a specific period. However, the system components deteriorate with time lead its failures. A frequent increases management costs, hence posing challenge decision-makers. Therefore, avoidance of failures, preventive maintenance is necessary. The objective any manufacturing firm maximize profit minimize cos...

Optimization models are necessary for efficient and cost-effective maintenance of a road network. In this regard, road deterioration is commonly modeled as a discrete-time Markov process such that an optimal maintenance policy can be obtained based on the Markov decision process, or as a renewal process such that an optimal maintenance policy can be obtained based on the renewal theory. However...

A convenient urban transportation network facilitates a high-quality life and high-growth economy. Due to cascading failures being ticklish question triggering continuous road congestion, the maintenance plan is momentous restore network. Considering fault edges are removed cars slowly drive out of these ease traffic distribution model proposed analyze process. To resume network, this paper pro...

Developments in sensor equipment and the Internet of Things increasingly allow production facilities to be monitored controlled remotely real-time. Organizations can exploit these opportunities reduce costs improve reliability by employing condition-based maintenance (CBM) policies. Another recently proposed option is adopt (CBP) policies that control deterioration dynamically adapting rate. Th...

This paper presents an approach to determining the optimal set of maintenance alternatives for a network of infrastructure facilities using genetic algorithms. Optimal maintenance alternatives are those solutions that minimize the life-cycle cost of an infrastructure network while fulfilling reliability and functionality requirements over a given planning horizon. Genetic algorithms are applied...
