This paper presents a fuzzy-based system that is used for maintenance planning of road pavements. The system has been developed based on knowledge elicitation from experienced maintenance engineers using fuzzy logic. The system includes functions for pavement condition and deterioration prediction, feasible treatment assessment in each pavement section, and maintenance planning in a road networ...

Unexpected system failures pose significant problems in power industry and most manufacturing companies. In some cases, a critical component failure can incur catastrophic events and huge economic loss. To maintain machines at high level of reliability, some companies perform time-based preventive maintenance or age-based preventive maintenance to avoid sudden failure of machines. Usually, prev...
