Opportunistic maintenance (OM) as a new advancement in maintenance approaches: A review

TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual analysis was conducted on various literatures to clarify a number of principle and concepts as a method for understanding information on OM. The analysis involves the process of separating the compound terms used in the literatures into a few parts, analyse them and then recombining them to have more clear understanding of the policy.

Development of a risk-based maintenance strategy using FMEA for a continuous catalytic reforming plant

TL;DR: In this article, a failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) method is developed using subjective information derived from domain experts to quantify the severity of personnel injury and environmental pollution, a risk index is introduced, and weight factors are determined by an analytic hierarchy process.
