development of monitoring systems to fault detection, in offensive and defensive systems, uav, aircraft and other complex systems technically make it possible and favorable, predictive diagnosis of faults. health management model and predict equipment failures (phm) were created in recent years by formation a strong bond of science in engineering, computer and reliability. for this reason, more...

In this paper, a new method for modelling and estimation of reliability parameters of power transformer components in distribution and transmission voltage levels for preventive-corrective maintenance schedule of transformers is proposed. In this method, with optimal estimation of Weibull distribution parameters using least squares method and input data uncertainty reduction, failure rate and p...

in this paper, we focus on a continuously deteriorating critical equipment which its failure cannot be measured by cost criterion. for these types of systems like military systems, nuclear systems, etc it is extremely important to avoid failure during the actual operation of the system. in this paper we propose an approach which constrains failure probability to a pre-specified value. this valu...

Background: The reliability and safety of gas refineries are strongly associated with the reliability of other parts of the system. Defect and failure in one part of a system can cause total system breakdown or accident. The failure and damage in these equipment such as transformers and boilers results in not only the equipment damage and human injuries but also productivity reduction. The purp...

Purpose Construction equipment is a key resource, and contractors that own a large equipment fleet take all necessary measures to maximize equipment utilization and minimize equipment failures. Although most contractors implement scheduled maintenance programs and carry out periodic inspections and repairs on their construction equipment, it is still difficult to predict the occurrence of a spe...
