Optimal maintenance strategy of deteriorating system under imperfect maintenance and inspection using mixed inspectionscheduling

TL;DR: This work investigated inspection-maintenance schemes for an operating system that suffers from degradation and proposed a strategy that combines both inspection and continuous monitoring to reduce unnecessary thorough inspection and to improve the system's reliability.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Data-Driven Approach to Selecting Imperfect Maintenance Models

TL;DR: An approach to conducting a goodness-of-flt test is proposed, a Bayesian approach to selecting the most adequate model among several competitive candidates is introduced, and a framework that incorporates the model selection results into the preventive maintenance decision making is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maintenance policy for a system with a weighted linear combination of degradation processes

TL;DR: The main objective of this paper is to optimise the time between preventive maintenance actions and the number of the preventive maintenance.

Wind turbine reliability estimation for different assemblies and failure severity categories

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology for supervisory control and data acquisition data processing has been developed combining previous research findings and experience from operational wind farms followed by statistical analysis of the results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal maintenance policy considering imperfect repairs and non-constant probabilities of inspection errors

TL;DR: A novel preventive maintenance policy is investigated for a three-state system by minimizing the cost rate over an infinite time horizon and an algorithm is proposed to obtain the optimal inspection interval and preventive replacement interval.

Introduction to Probability Models.

TL;DR: There is a comprehensive introduction to the applied models of probability that stresses intuition, and both professionals, researchers, and the interested reader will agree that this is the most solid and widely used book for probability theory.

Matrix-geometric solutions in stochastic models : an algorithmic approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical text suitable for students of engineering and science who are at the third year undergraduate level or beyond is presented, which is a book of applicable mathematics, which avoids the approach of listing only the techniques, followed by a few examples.
