Availability and cost assessment of systems with dormant failure undergoing sequential inspections
Himani Pant, S.B. SinghThe system encountering dormant failure subject to sequential inspections is modeled and the emphasis is made on determining the availability and long-run average cost rate for…
Applying analytical hierarchy process (AHP) in selecting best maintenance strategies for newly established chemical fertilizers plants
Abdul Kareem Abdul Jawwad, Ibrahim AbuNaffaThe purpose of this paper is to help newly established plants with minimal or no historical machine data select best maintenance strategies that suit their specific working setup…
Information as a key dimension to develop industrial asset management in manufacturing
Adalberto Polenghi, Irene Roda, Marco Macchi, Alessandro PozzettiThe purpose of this work is to investigate industrial asset management (AM) in manufacturing. After depicting gaps for AM in this sector, the role of information as a key…
Condition-based opportunistic maintenance policy for a series–parallel hybrid system with economic dependence
Aiping Jiang, Zhenni Huang, Jiahui Xu, Xuemin XuThe purpose of this paper is to propose a condition-based opportunistic maintenance policy considering economic dependence for a series–parallel hybrid system with a K-out-of-N…
Development of a remaining useful life (RUL) model for reinforced concrete beams subjected to high-cycle fatigue
Willem Wannenburg, Helen M. Inglis, Johann Wannenburg, Chris RothFailure of a critical reinforced concrete beam due to fatigue can have severe safety and production consequences, and preventative repair/replacement of such a beam is expensive…
Appropriate strategy selection for reliability-centered maintenance of one-shot systems using fuzzy model
Meysam Azimian, Mahdi Karbasian, Karim Atashgar, Golam KabirThis paper addresses special reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) strategies for one-shot devices by providing fuzzy inferences system with the assumption that, to data, there…
