Condition-based maintenance: tools and decision making
TLDR
In this paper, a wide variety of techniques commonly used to monitor the condition of mechanical systems are surveyed, and some of the decision models designed to address this type of inspection problem are discussed.Abstract:
The primary objective of equipment maintenance programmes is to preserve system functions in a cost‐effective manner. Surveys a wide variety of techniques commonly used to monitor the condition of mechanical systems. Reviews some of the decision models designed to address this type of inspection problem; concludes with some suggestions for future research directions in this type of decision problem.read more

Rough sets and maintenance in a production line
Angel M. Gento,Alfonso Redondo +1 more
TL;DR: Using the concept of rough sets, a comprehensive application where the information system is reduced so as to get a minimum subset of attributes without loss of quality is presented; a set of nine decision rules is obtained.

Scrap happens: A case of industrial end-users, maintenance and component remanufacturing outcome
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the use phase and the end-users' role in product remanufacturing outcome, and reveal the systemic nature of component re-manufacturing outcomes, and specifically, how maintenance activities of both components and the machines around them influence such outcomes.
