Two PM techniques, periodic PM and sequential PM, are considered. Whenever one of the units reaches its reliability threshold, a PM action has to be performed on that unit. At that time the whole system has to be stopped and PM opportunities arise for the other unitsof the system. An optimal PM practice is determined by maximizing the short-term cumulative opportunistic maintenance (OM) cost savings for the whole system. Numerical examples are given to show how this approach works. Finally, a comparison between the proposed PM policy and the other policies is given.展开更多

In this article,an improvement factor considering maintenance cost,age of machine and learning effect in the process of maintaining is constructed to describe the effect of periodic preventive maintenance. The model of improvement factor can be fitted through health index. Based on improvement factor with infinite time,cost function including preventive maintenance cost,minimal repair cost and replacement cost is explored. The unit cost and the optimized maintenance time interval based on limit of reliability are deduced. The process of optimization and an example are given.展开更多

The emphasis is on three main groups of multicomponent maintenance optimization models： the block replacement models, group maintenance models, and opportunistic maintenance models. Moreover, an example of a two-unit system maintenance process is provided in order to compare various maintenance policies.展开更多
